Marjorie Ann Harms
1933 - 2020
Marjorie Ann Harms 87, died Monday
November 16, 2020 at Kidron Bethel Healthcare in North Newton,
Kansas.
She was born October 9, 1933 in Newton,
Kansas to Isaac and Helen (Harms) Harms. She was third of three
children and was raised on a farm east of Newton. Marjorie was
baptized at Grace Hill Mennonite Church on June 5, 1949 upon her
confession of faith and she still holds membership at Grace Hill
Church. At an early age Marjorie contracted encephalitis which was a
fairly unknown disease at the time and had extremely limited
treatment options. She suffered the negative effect of the
encephalitis the rest of her life. Marjorie kept her faith and with
the help of family and friends she maintained a positive outlook on
life. She was a beloved member of the Kidron Bethel Family and was
glad to live close to her sister Doreen.
Marjorie is survived by her sister
Doreen Harms of North Newton and Brother Vernon Harms of Canada. She
is also survived by several extended family members and cousins.
She is preceded in death by her
parents.
Due to the current COVID-19
restrictions and in keeping everyone safe, a private service for the
family will be held and burial will be in the Grace Hill Cemetery.
Memorials in Marjorie's name may be
made to Grace Hill Mennonite Church or Kidron Bethel in care of
Petersen Funeral Home.
