God puts people together for a reason and in 1989 he put our family and the Hemingway's together briefly in Paris France.
Margie enhanced everyone she encountered with her warm smile and grace.
Our deepest condolences to the Hemingway family. Margie will be missed by everyone whose lives she touched.

Lindsay (and family), Your mama brought so much light to the world- esp when so many of us teenagers needed a place to get together and she welcomed us all. Every week. Love to your family in this very hard time. Keeping you all in our prayers. She was quite a classy lady- and stunning in every way.

Steve and I were saddened to hear of Margie's passing. So many years have passed since we were next door neighbors, but I have many sweet memories of those days. Margie was a wonderful cook doting mother. Her vegetable soup was delicious! She was also a devout Christian. May God comfort you with His peace and love during this difficult time. Love, Diane & Steve Petteway

I'm sorry to hear of Mrs. Hemingway's passing. She had a big heart and an even bigger smile. We lived across the street in Newark and she always welcomed us into her house. Even when living in Paris, she welcomed my friend and I to stay with them. What a wonderful person. I am sorry for your loss.
