Margi was born on March 12, 1947 to Arndt (Bill) and Lucille (Hanson) Vig in Albert Lea, MN.

After returning to Albert Lea Margi went back to school to get her RN nursing degree from Austin Community College. She worked as an RN for many years at Good Samaritan Center in Albert Lea, then later working in Medical Records at the Austin Medical Center.
Margi had a great love of reading, and movies. She loved tending and growing her many house plants and growing her own herbs and vegetables while gardening. Baking dozens of Christmas cookies was a tradition that Margi loved. Margi especially loved spending time with her grandchildren and family.

The family wishes to thank the staff of the Albert Lea Mayo Clinic Home Health and Hospice for the care and support given to Margi over the last year. Margi really enjoyed her visits from you and the ability for her to stay home as long as possible.
