She was born Jan. 13, 1925, in Connorsville to Olaf and Anna. She married Wallace Frank in the late 1940s and they were later divorced.

Marge enjoyed playing piano, singing, listening to old-time country music and visiting with family and friends. She also enjoyed cooking and always made sure there was a hot meal on the stove for anyone who was hungry. She was well-known among family and friends for making the best potato soup around.
