She is preceded in death by her parents, John and Freda (nee Emmons) Hefner; her loving husband, Solomon E. Langston; 2 sons-in-law; 5 sisters, 3 brothers; and several nieces and nephews.

Margie was a dedicated servant of the Lord and a member of Overland Baptist Church. She was a caring and self-sacrificing mother who loved cooking and gardening. She enjoyed helping others and on many occasions would share her love of cooking, whether it would be a simple meal for a neighbor or a larger meal prepared for the veterans at the local VFW. During her working years, she held a position at Century Electric where she wrapped wires for motors. As her family grew she chose her ultimate lifetime career, the role of full time homemaker.
