The Virtual Memorial Garden

Margie passed away peacefully at 7:51 at the home of her daughter, Deborah; with her three surviving children at her side. She fought lung cancer with the same independence and self-discipline that characterized the whole of her life and died with an uncommon courage, diginity and preparation. The truly responsible way that she lived her life with concern for others left an indelible mark on those who knew and loved her.

She was the wife of a retired Navy Electronics Chief; a very popular "people-person"; a man with a truly big-heart, who died of an apparent heart-attack while driving her to a cancer treatment in Illinois:
Kenneth L. Cooksey (B 3-28-1932; D 10-02-1992 [Festus, MO.])
