    So sad to hear of Marge’s passing, condolences to Roy, Graeme, Terry and family. Marge was always so kind to everyone and cherished by many. I have many fond memories as a young feller coming to visit at the farm and many years later bringing my own children to visit. Collecting the eggs with Marge was one of Amelia & Liams favorites things to do.

    RIP Marge you will be dearly missed.

    The Humphris family would like to thank everyone who responded here and sent flowers and cards to show their love and support. It means a lot to us that so many people took the time to share their special memories.

    Your support has been a great source of comfort to us. Marge’s ashes were scattered near the La Fontaine attended by a large crowd of curious cows and the immediate family. She is where she wanted to be.
