Marge and Frank were wonderful people. Kind and loving friends.. a joy to be around...I loved them both and will miss them...Romelle Plzak
I have memories of Marge cooking when coming back from playing with Dennis in the 'Rockies' as well as up North at the cottage. Frank liked his big bag of peanuts and complete control of the grill while Marge loved her kitchen and when someone would sit down with her and have an old fashion. Oh Frank did the dishes !
In all sincerity its hard to talk about one without the other. Both God fearing, salt of the earth people whom God has wrapped his loving arms around. We all are blessed to have had them come into our lives. God bless the entire family.
Marge was a very special Lady with a warm, loving heart and always displayed positive energy. Her legacy will include her smile, her laughter, and the way she made everyone she encountered feel special. Rest in Peace with Our Dear Lord, Marge. You will never be forgotten ... and neither will your Husband.
Our family's thoughts and prayers are with you. Aunt Marge and Uncle Frank were truly wonderful people. May your memories bring you peace.

And the Rindfleisch family
Frank and Marge were remarkable people. They will always hold a place in my life. They knew the importance of family. They always welcomed with open arms and left company saying goodbye with full tummy's and happy hearts. They both were a joy to be around and the days spent up at the lake will always be memories that I will never forget. While many people come and go in life, Frank and Marge were among the elite. They had an impact on me and most certainly on many others. Although it's difficult to let Marge go, I know she is at peace with Frank in Heaven. And I'm sure God held some very special seats for two very special people. They will be greatly missed here. But their memories remain. I am thankful for the opportunity to know them both. My deepest respects to the Krall family.
My sympathy at the loss of your Mother, know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
