Margie Ann Breeding

Margie Ann Breeding, born on February 26, 1943, in Riverdale, Arkansas, peacefully passed away on December 28, 2023, leaving behind a legacy of love and warmth. Margie was the cherished daughter of Edker and Pearl Phillips. On July 19, 1965, she embarked on a lifelong journey of love and companionship by marrying Charles Junior Breeding in Payette, Idaho.

Together, Margie and Charles built a beautiful family, blessed with children Brenda Lukenbaugh, Perry Breeding, Van Breeding, and Theresa Richey. Margie's heart overflowed with love for her grandchildren: Killan, Drake, Melinda, Jessica, Cody, Lori, Michael, Nean, Miranda, Nathan, Scott, and Mark. Her joy extended to great-grandchildren Alex, Colin, Savannah, Maverick, William, Fiona, and James.

Margie was a devoted sister to Robert, Oscar, Ehoch, Frank, Richard, Louis, Wanda, Mildred, and Mapes. Her family ties were strong, and she cherished the bonds with her siblings throughout her life.

For six decades, Margie called Stayton her home, creating countless memories and leaving an indelible mark on the community. Her hobbies reflected her vibrant spirit - spending time with her grandchildren, indulging in shopping, camping adventures, drives in the mountains, playing bingo, and fishing brought her immense joy.

Margie had a heart of gold, evident in her selfless acts of raising numerous children and always putting others' needs before her own. She loved the outdoors and found solace in the simple pleasures of life. She was a devoted mom, sister, grandma, friend, wife, best friend, and most of all mother. Her generosity knew no bounds, and she never sought anything in return for her kindness.

Margie is now reunited with her beloved husband, Charles Breeding, and her parents, Edker and Pearl. Her memory will forever live on in the hearts of those she touched with her love, compassion, and unwavering kindness.
