It is with great sadness that the family of Margorie Diane Meminger announce her passing on Wednesday, November 1, 2017.

Born on July 5, 1943 in Lafayette, Georgia to the parents of James A. and Thelma Green. Margorie was the second of six siblings. Upon graduating from James A. Garfield High in 1061 Margorie worked at the ABC School for unwed mothers as a Social Worker, she then went on to pursue a lucrative career in insurance sales. As a skilled seamstress, Margorie honed her extraordinary talent and creativity to bless the lives of many. Margorie acquired a love for tent camping and shared that love with her younger sisters Tuffy (Tonya) and Wally Patrice and later with nephews Darren, Rahsaan, aka Jim, Daniel and grandson Lance. Her larger than life personality, witty sense of humor and outspokenness allowed her to meet no strangers. Margorie derived great joy spending time with her grandson, Lance, who was the love of her life.
