Dear Family,
Margot was a very fine lady, always had a smile. She would stop to say hello when she visited the doctor's office and we would chat for a moment or two. I have know your mom for18 years ever since she was a guest at my daughter's wedding. My condolences to the entire Hammershlag family.

Dear Margot's Family,

My deepest sympathy to all. I have many fond memories of spending time with "Mom" whenever I visited my dear friends in CT. I remember road trips to Virginia, up state NY, at home with Margot in Hartford and just hanging out at Elaine's. She was delightful and lots of fun. As with all things, a beautiful life comes to an end. Rest in peace Margot. Love to all, Branka
