Born in Alpharetta, Georgia, on October 9, 1930, to the late Joel and Carrie Shirley, Marjorie was a true Southern lady and a shining example of quiet strength and grace—a real “Steel Magnolia.” She was a woman of deep faith whose life centered around her love for family, her church, and her garden.
Marjorie will be remembered for her kind heart, selfless nature, and quiet presence. She touched countless lives with her gentle spirit and caring ways.
She is survived by her children, Vickie Ross (Dave), Jean Bradbury (Steve Mew), and Charles Harris (Louis Okoniewski); grandchildren, Renee Diggelmann (Kevin), Victoria Quach (Yin), and James Morris; and great-grandchildren, Kai, Jia, and Elise.
Visitation will be held on Friday, April 25, 2025, from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. at Roswell Funeral Home, followed by a service at 2:00 p.m. Interment will follow at Green Lawn Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to a children’s charity of your choice, in honor of Marjorie’s lifelong commitment to kindness and care.
