What a gifted and talented woman of God! She was in the category of our dear departed friend who was also a servant of the Lord, Rev. Dr. Cheryl Golden. God is good and worthy to be praised! Love family...Rev. Dr. Niambi Webster
The family has my condolences. Majorie was my BFF. We did a lot of things together, as far as going to parties, eating out, and attending concert. l will definitely miss her very much.
It was sad to hear of Marjorie's passing. She was a sweet friendly lady who loved singing and praising. Condolences to her children and family. Magnolia โฅ๏ธ๐๐๐
It is very hard to conceive that my dear friend Marj has gone. Marj and I had a very close and great friendship; we share many things with each other. She was always there for me, as I was for her. We were each others sounding board. I know you were tired; you fought a good fight. I will see you one day in that prepared place. Love you, Bobbie Robinson
I'm saddened to have heard this. I wasn't around my dad's family much after my pre-grade school years, but one of the few things I've always remembered was the warmth of Majorie and her infectious smile ... My heart goes out to Jannah, Chris, the grands and all the family ... may her light and love always live on. You guys are in my heart and prayers

Marjorie and I was sister-in-laws and besties for over 40+ years. She loved and married my brother not once, but twice.๐
Garland and Majorie left us a blessed host of grands, great-grands, great great-grands, great-nieces, great-nephews, great great-nieces and great great-nephews.
What a blessing for all of us to enjoy the love that they've left our family praise God!
My life won't be the same because you're in the arms of our God resting peacefully.
Our outings were awesome whenever we rode together or met at a place together. Our deep talks via phone or in person about the Lord and things that were going on in our lives, were strengthening and healing for the both of us. We shared alot with each other for many years.
I'm struggling with the loss of you. I know God will see me through. He will see us all through. Hallelujah yes He will๐
I'll see ya when I get there sweetheart. In the meantime, RIH (Rest In Heaven)
