1/10/1943 - 7/14/2020
Marjorie Jane Frazier, age 77, of Kissimmee, FL and formerly of
Rushville, IN and Portland, IN passed away Tuesday, July 14th after an
extended illness. She was born one of four children on January 10, 1943 in
Celina, Ohio to Lester “Happy Jack” Bricker and Myrtle Knittle Bricker. She
was a Portland High School graduate.
In her early years, she served
as a Sunday School teacher, babysitter and cleaned houses for many, many
families. She had a lot of children that loved her and called her “Mom”. She
was later a waitress at the Brown Derby in Indianapolis and a store manager
for Potatoes, Etc. In 1986, Margie moved to Kissimmee, FL, where she began
working for Walt Disney World. Nineteen years later, Mickey and Minnie
allowed her to retire.
Margie had two wonderful sons, whom she
adored. Left to cherish her memory are those sons Robert Steed of Shirley,
IN and Fred Steed (wife Pam) of Milroy, IN, one brother Fred Bricker (wife
Patricia) of Portland, IN. She had one grandson, Jonathon Steed of Milroy,
IN and two step-granddaughters, Tiffany Alford (husband Jeff) of Ladoga, IN
and Kandace McKenna of New Ross, IN who will miss her very much. She also
leaves behind nine step-grandchildren.
Those meeting her at heaven's
gate are her parents, Lester and Myrtle, two sisters, Jackie Petschke and
Judy Weagant and great niece, Chasity Weagant. I'm sure there will be many
others who will be there to rejoice her arrival and welcome her with open
arms.
Services will be held at 2:00 PM on Saturday, July 25th at
Baird-Freeman Funeral Home in Portland, IN with Pastor Darryl Cooper of
Rushville presiding. Friends and family may call from 10:00 – 2:00 at the
funeral home. Marjorie wished to be cremated so burial at Salamonia Cemetery
will be at a later date.
