Marjorie was born Aug., 11, 1931, the daughter of Cecil Kysar and Lucille Langley. She married Cecil Howard “Pete” Fierge in April of 1949.
Mrs. Fierge loved playing cards and going fishing with as many of her grandchildren as they could pile in the back of a truck! She wrote this about going fishing “I love to go Fishing! Morning, noon, or night, no matter if it’s through thickets, over barbed wire fences, and even swimming a creek to get to where the fish are biting because it is a real treat.” Her greatest accomplishment in life was raising her 11 children and the numerous others that called her mom.
