She and her granddaughter Krista had a special fun-filled relationship. Krista was her caregiver the last few years she lived at home. They would drive down main street in Broken Arrow in Krista's convertible with the top down and wave at all the people.
Marjorie had a very special relationship with her best friend Michelle Carpenter. Their antics were legendary especially when they celebrated Marjorie's 99th birthday two years in a row. Marjorie loved to read biographies and play with her two cats. She was a huge fan of Patrick Swayze.
