Marjorie was a longtime member of the Home Road Church of Christ in Christian Union. For 35 years, she dedicated her working life at Forest Glen, where her colleagues became friends, and her infectious smile brightened the days of many. Outside of her work life, Marjorie found joy in traveling, particularly to the towns of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. These trips were highlights in her life, a chance to explore the world around her. Bowling was another love of Marjorie's, filled with spirited competition and the laughter of friends who joined her in the alleys. Marjorie will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
