She was a very sweet lady. We are praying for the family.
She was a great lady really enjoyed serving the Lord. She will be greatly missed. Our prayers are with the family
She was a humble woman who always looked out for others rather than herself.
I will always cherish the old guitar that she wanted me to have. She will be missed. R I P
So sad to hear about Marjorie’s passing. I had the opportunity to see her a few times in the last couple of years, unfortunately it was during her visits to the hospital. I loved the times when she had stories to tell me about my Dad, Huelon. I will always remember her sweet smile and her kind, gentle spirit. God bless you and may the peace of the Lord be with you all.
Much Love to all,
Diane
I will miss her terribly but have such wonderful memories. Aunt Marjorie was always so sweet and soft spoken. I loved just sitting with her and talking. She didn’t want to talk about herself but wanted to know about me and later Jerry and my girls. I know she was greeted with so much love and joy by all her siblings and Vono. Love you bunches! Wish I got one more hug and kiss…
