Marge grew up in South Philadelphia and was a graduate of Southern High School. After marrying Nick in 1955, they moved to Sharon Hill, PA where they lived and raised their two sons. She was a member of the Sharon Hill Women's Club, enjoyed being a Den Mother for her sons' Cub Scout groups and her work as a secretary for the township and for a local doctor's office.
