One of her greatest joys in life was being a mother and grandmother. She poured her heart into her daughters and grandchildren. Whether she was showing family recipes, sharing childhood stories, or patiently guiding them through new skills, she loved every moment spent helping them learn and grow. Margie’s quick wit and humor could brighten any room. She was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. She was a sweet, loving, intelligent, and devoted woman whose kindness affected all who knew her. Margie was a member of St. Stephens Methodist Church and the Pathfinders Sunday School Group for 59 years. Margie worked for many years in Amarillo as a realtor and broker.

Margie was preceded in death by her daughter, Sheral Strecker, and brothers, Carl and Elton Willoughby.
