She was baptized and confirmed at Grace Lutheran Church in Worthington. Marjorie attended and graduated from Round Lake Schools in 1957. Upon graduation she attended beauty school in Fairmont. Marjorie was united in marriage to Ron Scott on November 16, 1958, at Grace Lutheran Church. Although this union was later dissolved, they were blessed with 3 children Ron, Delores, and Marjean. Marjorie lived in various places, before planting her roots in Jackson, where she proudly raised her 3 children by herself. Once all the children where in school, Majorie worked in housekeeping at the Jackson Hospital and the Good Samaritan Society until retiring in 2000. Due to health issues, Marjorie moved into the Pines Assisted Living and later became a resident of the Good Samaritan Society in Jackson.
