Marjorie Stringham, a special spirit of God, left her earthly home on Tues., October 14, 2003, of congestive heart failure at the age of 66.
A woman of virtue and a blessing to all those fortunate enough to be in her world. Growing up, Marjorie adored all forms of singing, dancing, painting and was a master at handiwork; creating innumerable hook rugs and crocheted pieces whenever given a chance. Her faith in the Gospel, her focus and strength were clear. Never a nasty or negative word, encouragement and love is all that anyone heard. Unselfish and caring she put herself last, most important was her family and friends as each day passed. Her home was her castle, she loved to be there, a more devoted member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints couldn't be found anywhere.
God saw her getting tired and a cure was not to be so He put His arms around her and whispered, "Come unto Me." Her heart of gold stopped beating, her hands of service laid to rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us - He only takes the best.
Marjorie, we will love you till the oceans run dry and your example motivates us to be kinder and to love unconditionally. We thank you for touching our lives and for being such a marvelous example of true
Christianity.
We know you are dwelling in the highest Kingdom along with your late father, John Phillip Stringham and sister LaRue Prince. Survived by your mother, Della Lund Stringham, companion and soul-mate. Older brother Dr. J. Phillip Stringham Jr. of Ft. Lauderdale, Florida; and younger sisters: Audrey S. Brady of Phoenix, Arizona; Mary S. Cottam of Salt Lake; and Shirley S. Vangeloff of Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. Marjorie was the proud aunt to 28, and great-aunt to 44.
Her main questions: "When are you going to visit and when are you going to have a baby." Oh! How she loved! Marjorie, we all salute you for your goodness - you are THE BEST!
