Marge was born and raised in Earlham, Iowa. She had a fun and lively spirit, always looking for mischief and adventure. She was active at the Park Fair Senior Center. Marge and Fritz were involved in round dancing. She always had jokes, chocolate, and her beautiful laugh ready to share with everyone she encountered.
Marge is donating her body to Des Moines University. She requested no funeral and a small family remembrance will be planned for a future date.

I knew Margie from the North Side Senior Center. She was always cordial and friendly and a real nice person to sit with and a lot of fun. She will be greatly missed coming to the center.
