In 1977, Marge and Melvin moved to Kearney, Nebraska where they lived until 1992. (It was there that Marge worked for Alco.) They returned to Redwood Falls in 1992.
Marge was a member of Cornerstone Christian Church where she served as a deaconess and Sunday school teacher. She also belonged to the Sunshine Circle. Marge belonged to bowling league; she won several bowing trophies and missed bowling a perfect game by just one pin! Marge also enjoyed sewing, crocheting, embroidering and watching the Minnesota Twins and Vikings.
She is survived by her children Pauline (Keith) Couch of Gering, Nebraska, Katherine (Bob) Williams of Riverside, California, Ardis (Keith) Kearney of Clarinda, Iowa, Edward Hewett of Redwood Falls, and Joyce (Johnny) Marlow of Redwood Falls; nine grandchildren; and 12 great-grandchildren.

Blessed be her memory.
