Guestbook/Condolences
Marge is my Aunt. She and my mom (Fern) were best buds and friends. The funny and crazy stories we could tell you all of their adventures are many. When my mother was ill Marge took her in for her last few weeks. Then took over being grandma to my many children. A 2nd mother to me.
What a glorious reunion of her with Heavenly Parents and Savior, her husband, my mom and her family. I am sure more stories will be told of their adventures in the spirit world when my turn comes to join them. Until then we will miss her as she is the last of her generation.
We Love you Marge. Please say hello to mom

My condolences to you all! She was amazing, and I always enjoyed her at the family parties, and listening to her fun stories. My grandma Alice, and my mom (Charlene) will be happy to see her again, as well as the rest of the family members. May your heart be filled with all the wonderful memories you all made together.
My condolences go out to my entire family during this tough time. I am blessed and thankful to know the she is with our Lord and Savior and reunited with her love ones. We will meet again
I loved and adored your cute mom. I would take mom over to visit Marge last year. Mom always wanted to take her some of her beautiful dahlias and asked me to bring her up some peaches. They were both so fun to listen to, with all their stories and quick wits! Love the Haynes family and the great memories I have of you all!❤️
In these past 2 days, we celebrated our beloved friend and angel Marjorie Haynes. She was a shining light in our village, always inspiring, loving, and full of joy. Marjorie played a significant role in helping my daughter and me find our strength and nurture the gifts bestowed upon us by the Heavenly Father.
We cherished Marge deeply, she embodied the teachings of Jesus Christ in every aspect of her life. It was a privilege to have known her for the past 11 years, and we will forever be grateful for the impact she had on us.💐♥️@Evelyn Pereira
To Vick, Jan, John, and Suzi,
I am grateful to have had your mom in my life for the past 11 years, cheering and blessing me in so many ways. My prayers and love go out to all of you for comfort and assurance that there is a celebration in Heaven to welcome Marge.
The Heavens opened, and she communicated with them so often lately going back and forth offering us comfort by assuring us that she was prepared. I love all of you, and I am thankful to have been part of the embracing Haynes family throughout these eleven years.
Love you all!
