Marjorie J. Struble, 89, formerly of Tyner and the Meyer’s Lake area, passed away at 12:35 a.m. on Friday, Jan. 2, 2015, at the Signature Healthcare of Bremen.

Born in South Bend, on July 14, 1925, Marjorie was the daughter of Francis O. and Marie (Van Riper) Smith. On July 12, 1945, Marjorie married Fred E. Struble in Pratt, Kan., before he left with his unit in the Air Force during WWII.

Marjorie worked as a waitress and then began painting for various companies in the area, such as Collins & Co. and Palbekin.

She was a lady that was always on the go and the rock in her family. Marjorie was quite the character and loved to make people laugh. She loved going on long car rides with Fred, enjoying nature. She liked fishing and treasured collecting Snow Babies. She sent cards to her dear family and friends for every occasion, and often dropped off homemade desserts to some of her favorite hang-out spots. Marjorie was also a member of the Tyner Rebekah Lodge #865.

(Sue) Struble, Lakeville; her grandchildren: Brett Burger; Doug and Sara Burger; Mike Lowery; Kameron and Brandy Struble; Kody Lowery; Kole Lowery; Kyle Burger; Alex Burger; Gavin Struble; Lydia Struble; Laelyn Lowery; and her brother: Frank Smith Jr., Mishawaka.
