Margery LaVon Grossen, 86, passed away on August 3, 2018, at

her sister, Darlene.
She is survived by five children, Timothy of Plymouth,
Christine (Tom) Forsterling of Random Lake, Deborah (John) Lefebvre of

After attending rural grade school, she graduated from
Tipton (Iowa) High School and Mission House College (now Lakeland University)
in 1954. She furthered her education at
Indiana Ivy Tech becoming a medical assistant.
She worked in private home care before being employed at Pine Haven in
Sheboygan Falls. In addition to health
care, she worked in the Midwest interviewing for pollsters Lou Harris and
Gallup. She was a homemaker above all
but found time to be a den mother for the Cub Scouts and was supportive of women
and youth activities in church where her husband was a pastor.
Following retirement, Marge enjoyed cruise ship traveling
and visiting the many fascinating locales around the world with her husband,
family and friends.
According to her wishes, a private service will be held for
the immediate family. In lieu of
flowers, memorial gifts may be made to Lakeland University or Sharon S.
Richardson Community Hospice.
