Margie J. Sledge Russell, of Liberty, Texas, flew away with her angels on Wednesday, November 4, 2015, to be with her Lord and Savior, after a lengthy illness. She was 92 years young and loved her family, friends and life.
Margie was born July 18, 1923 in Teague, to parents; Homer and Mettie L. Stevens Sledge. She was a graduate of the Teague High School, a retired legal secretary, and member of the Central Baptist Church in Liberty, Texas. She and her husband, Bill Russell, had lived many years in Midland, Texas then moved to Liberty, Texas in 2007.
