Bosse, Margaret Mary (Marge) Nee Reise
Loving Wife of Bill for 72 years. Cherished Mom of Susan Lindenberg and Stephanie (Taffi) Becker with their husbands, James Lindenberg and Mark Becker. Adored and LOVED by her Grandchildren, Katie Alvarado and her husband Robert Alvarado, Andrew Lindenberg, Sarah Becker and William Lindenberg. LOVED by her great-grandchildren Isabella Lindenberg, Alexander Lindenberg, Elena Lindenberg, Isla Alvarado, Nora Alvarado and Maia Alvarado. Also loved by nephews, nieces, in-laws and many, many friends.
Born in Milwaukee, Marge worked at the Riverside Theater where she met Bill, her wonderful husband of 72 years. Marge’s Favorite job was being “the” florist for Sentry Foods. Her passion for people and flowers was a perfect combination. She also volunteered with Boerner Botanical Gardens, where she taught classes for floral arranging, and helped with the Rose Festivals. She was a volunteer for ACCAP of Waukesha, helping them with special crafts and their annual parties. She was a VERY creative and talented woman to say the least. She was featured in the Milwaukee Journal, and won an award from a national magazine. She won many blue ribbons at the Wisconsin State Fair.
Marge’s real passion was the LOVE for her family. She was known by her kids, grand-kids, great grand-kids and friends as the best gingerbread cookie baker ever. Both Marge and Bill’s love for family togetherness was extremely important, as well as their vacations to Disneyworld, Florida, California, D.C., and New York to name a few. Holidays were also very important, and she always spent time together with as many family and fiends as possible. She could decorate like no other, which included decorating John Ernst Cafe for Christmas and her daughter’s homes.
Her family believes that Marge and Bill are now reunited and are spending their time happily together on Heaven’s version of their front porch… their happy place.
Miss and love you Mom and Dad, you’re the very best. (Smile)
AFTER GLOW
I’d like the memory of me to be a happy one
I’d like to leave an after glow of smiles when life is done
I’d like to leave an echo whispering softly down the ways
Of happy times and laughing times and bright and sunny days
I’d like the tears of those that grieve, to dry before the sun
Of happy memories that I leave when life is done
