1943-2017
Marjorie Ann (Carr) Caroll Henderson, 73, of Maryville Missouri, passed away on Thursday, October 19, 2017, at Mosaic Life Care, St. Joseph, Missouri.
Marjorie was born in Maryville, Missouri, on November 6, 1943, to Truman and Geneva (Carpenter) Carr. They preceded her in death. She was also preceded by an infant son, Lawrence; her husband L.D. “Buck” Carroll, and later her second husband Tom Henderson; her sister Roma Roming, and her brother, Cecil Wayne Carr.
She was a graduate of Maryville High School. Marjorie lived in the Ravenwood and Maryville area her entire life.
She and her husband Buck were married for 36 years. In those years, they owned an auction house and raised and hunted many coon dogs. She had been the mayor of Ravenwood, Missouri for 16 years and later worked in the Bakery at the Conception Abbey, of Conception, Missouri. She was a member of the Laura Street Baptist Church and taught a bible study at surrounding nursing homes.
Left to cherish her memory are seven brothers and sisters: Manford C. Carr, Ottawa, Kansas, Twila May Stone, The Colony, Texas, Henry T. Carr, Seymour, Missouri, Wilma (Runyan) Grant, Higginsville, Missouri, Barbara Cochran, Lincoln, Missouri, William C. (Bill) Carr, Howitt, Texas, Richard W. (Rick) Carr, Maryville, Missouri, and many beloved foster sisters and brothers and numerous nieces, nephews. There were too many children to list that she helped raise and called her own.
Marjie loved the Lord with her whole heart and thought of the word “love” as a verb, it was something she “did” not a way she felt. She truly “loved” people every day of her life.
The visitation will start at 9:30 a.m. and then funeral services will be at 10:30 a.m., on Monday, October 23, 2017, at the Laura Street Baptist Church, Maryville, Missouri. The burial will follow in the Miriam Cemetery, Maryville.
Services under the direction of the Bram-Danfelt Funeral Home, Maryville, Missouri.
