Marjorie and Paul were married on May 4, 1957 in Moosomin, SK.  Paul was employed by the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool. They lived in a number of communities in southern Saskatchewan, spending many years in both Edenwold and Edgeley; following retirement they moved to Regina.  They had four children:  Gailene, Donna, David and Janice.  Marjorie’s interests and activities included:  gardening, spending time at the cottage on Katepwa Lake, her faith in God, shopping, reading, following the Royal Family, history and genealogy, journaling, curling, golfing, figure skating, art, live theatre and music, travelling and vacations. She was always involved in the community in which they lived and her volunteering included canvassing for the Canadian Cancer Society and Diabetes Association.  For the past five years she lived at Broadway Terrace in Regina where she enjoyed making new friends while continuing to live an active life.  Marjorie’s family was very important to her and she spent time visiting them, including several trips to Australia and Toronto.  A Prayer Service for the immediate family was held on Wednesday, April 15, 2020 at Speers Funeral Chapel.  The family would like to express their sincere gratitude to the staff members at Arbor Oaks Manor for their care and concern for Marjorie during her stay there.
