Marjorie raised three children and was very active in her community by leading 4-H Club, coordinating Defensive Driving Courses, and selling Avon for many years. She had natural skills in hairdressing, sewing, and knitting. She was an active member of the Morris Lutheran Church of the Cross, leading choir, Sunday School, Luther League, confirmation, E.L.W., and many worship services. She was naturally talented in music and sang, played accordion and guitar regularly at nursing homes and family gatherings. She happily shared her love of music. Marjorie also had a great love for animals from an early age on the farm. She had a special love for horses, cats, and dogs, especially Bear. The family thanks Chaplain Ian and the fifth floor staff for their care and compassion in her final days. According to Marjorie's wishes, cremation has taken place. Interment will occur at a later date. A celebration of her life will take place on Thursday, February 9 at 2:00 p.m., at Sherwood Park Lutheran Church, 7 Tudor Crescent, Winnipeg, MB R2K 2A5.

All of the Annell siblings loved music. There was a special song that I'll always remember and asked for at each family gathering. There was always laughter. Margie will be missed. - Posted by: Holly Wheeler (niece) on: Feb 07, 2012

So sorry to hear of Marjorie passing. I have fond memory of Marjorie and Janice coming on the Bus to see their Mother in Chatfield. Their singing was also something to listen to. It was beautiful. My condolences and sympathy to the family. - Posted by: Mary Ptashynski ( friend) on: Feb 07, 2012
