Age 89, a resident of Albuquerque from 1972, leaving to live in Florence, Oregon and returning to Albuquerque in 2009. Marjorie was called to the Father on April 18, 2014.

She was preceded in death by her daughter Nancy Turanski. Marjorie was a member of the Florence Garden Club and past member of Four Hills, Tanoan, and Paradise Hills Country Clubs. She led a very active life balancing the rigors of being a USAF Commander's wife, raising a family, and spending many hours as a volunteer at local hospitals. She also managed to find time to become an accomplished golfer and bowler. Marjorie lived life with a passion and determination. Whatever she pursued she gave it her all. We will all remember her distinctive laugh and her passion for life. She will be missed by all who knew her.
