Aunt Margie was a fun-loving, friendly, generous, affectionate and loving member of the Telleri and Lussoro families. I remember fondly the many Christmas Eves at the Lussoro home in Oceanside. I can recall just how my mom, my Aunt Theresa and my Aunt Margie just seemed to run things when the families got together. They they were in charge, and they knew just what to do and they were always busy. The men? Well, they were usually playing cards or watching a game, or just talking. Aunt Margie was quick-witted and could size up people instantly. She was one of the adults in our family who i thought (when i was a kid) who just seemed to love life, had purpose with her family and seemed to watch over those of us who were around her. I recall how affectionate she was with my grandfather, who was not usually a terribly outgoing man. I vividly recall her dancing happily with my Uncle Rusty at family gatherings (this would be decades ago) with my Uncle sometimes playing the trumpet and singing whether it was Christmas Eve or some other holiday.
