Margie had the most angelic voice. When she would sing in church it was so beautiful! Playing and singing in church was her passion. So blessed were we at St. Boniface all the years she shared her talent.
She suffersed much with all her ailmemts but every time we talked she was positive and cheerful despite it all.
A gentle soul, so humble and sweet. Sure will Miss you Margie!!

My Sympathy to the Navara Family. Sending prayers for peace and comfort during this sad time. ( I graduated from Stewart High School with Dick Navara).
Sharon (Wosmek) Cuhel says
Wishing our deepest sympathy to the entire Navara family for the passing of Margie. She now will sing with the other angels in heaven. So sorry I was not able to attend the funeral. Missed seeing the family and cousins. Gary is struggling with his health and at times is just better to stay home rather then travel. Blessings to you all. Cousin, Sharon Cuhel
