Marjorie was fortunate to have had two loves in her lifetime, first married on Apr. 9,

Beltone Hearing Aid center. Previously she lived in Butler, PA and worked as a

to being a loving wife and dedicated mother, Marjorie was a member of the Presbyterian
Church, and taught Sunday school classes. She enjoyed golfing, fishing, dancing,
bringing family together for holiday occasions, and was an exceptional cook.
Marjorie is survived by three children, Dale E. Gordon (Arvilla) of Tampa, Fla., Karen A.
Gordon of Palm Springs, Calif., Fred D. Gordon (Aracelly) of Coconut Creek, Fla.; and
one brother James Wright.
She was the proud grandmother of eight grandchildren, Tiffiny (Garrett) Weston, James
(Jill) Taylor, Nicholas Gordon, Jessica (Mike) Dickson, Megan (John) Hines, Natasha
Gordon, Katie Gordon, and Michelle Gordon; and nine great-grandchildren.
