In 1960, they moved their family from George to Sibley, Iowa.
Marge began working as a Nurse’s Aide after their move. She continued her job in the health care industry working at Country View Manor, Sibley Nursing and Rehab, and finished out her working career with Home Health.
Marge enjoyed crafts, ceramics, making cards, going out for lunch with the bible church group, the “Ashton girls”, and spending winters in Arizona. She was known for her “softa” cookies, and rusk bread. Marge very much cared for her family, church family, and friends.
