Margie worked in the accounting field for Nashua Trust Company, Nault's Transportation Companies, Rifky's, and Henry's Auto Body until retiring in 2001 after suffering two debilitating strokes. She was a member of the Litchfield School Board in the 1970s, where she served as checklist supervisor as well.

She also enjoyed shopping with Laurel, barbeques with Larry, late winter trips to Florida, and playing with her grandkids. An avid Patriots fan, she loved getting together with friends to watch the games at home or at the stadium.
