I am so grateful i got to spend some time with Aunt Marjorie and Ann in August of last year and all the phone calls with Aunt Marjorie I will treasure them. Prayers for all.
My heart is so broken. I just found out after the service. I would have loved to have seen all of you and to have been there. She was like a mother and grandmother to a lot of kids between Snowlake and Elaine. She was definitely an inspiration in my life along with Mr.Johnny. I loved them both dearly. She loved her family unconditionally and everyone else. She was one of the best cooks and I loved her chocolate nut fudge cake(no one could make it like her). Heaven has definitely gained and angel. Sending my love to all of you.
Aunt Margie was one of the kindest people you would ever meet. At a Williamson family gathering it was easy to get lost in the "sea of people" there, but she would make sure that she found you, not just to say hello, but to have a conversation with you.
I admired her spirit and how she carried on after the hardships in her life.
We miss her already.
So sorry to hear about our dear friend leaving us, she was a wonderful Christian woman that was a friend to many, she prepared me many meals and provided for many, she will be missed

I am so sorry to see that Marjorie has passed on. My mother (Irene Victory) and my dad (Jesse J. (Vic) Victory) as well as myself were dear friends of Marjorie for decades. She worked for us at Crumrod Stores Inc. in Elaine
for many years but she was much more than an employee-she was our friend. Love to her family and friends and prayers with all.
