Obituary of Marjorie L Rempel

Please share a memory of Marjorie to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
Marjorie L. Bowser, 85, a resident of the Katherine Luther Home was peacefully carried to heaven by the lord's angels on June 21, 2015. Margie was born in Bakersville, N.C., the daughter of the late Samuel and Jane McBee. She attended Utica schools and graduated from Utica Free Academy. She married William "Ken" Bowser in 1947. Before Ken's untimely death in 1965 they enjoyed summer gatherings at the family's camp on Hinkley Lake. Margie and Ken were both active members of the Mohawk Valley Sports Car Club, where she served as secretary. She loved the fine arts and frequented the Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute often. Margie was a talented abstract artist herself who also enjoyed sewing, making her own clothing, and writing stories and short tales. In 1976 Margie married John Rempel and moved to Pennsylvania where she resided until 2007. At that time Margie returned to the Mohawk Valley to be closer to her family and as a result began a special bond with her great-granddaughter, Saige. Margie's life was by no means an easy one, yet despite it all she filled the chips in her shoulders with humor, adorned herself in colorful jewelry and quirky outfits as if to laugh at life's attempts to undo her character and spirit. She was predeceased by her husband William and her brother Robert McBee. She is survived by her children, Sandra Manning of Remsen, NY, Robin Bowser of Daytona Beach, FL, Eugene Bowser and his Fiancée Dawn Faraino of Vernon Center; her two sisters, Doris Pugliese of New Hartford, NY and Georgeann McBee of Baldwinsville, NY; her two brothers, Ronnie McNiel of Downingtown, PA and Paul McBee of Jacksonville, FL; many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews. Special thanks to Dawn Faraino for all her dedicated love, support and assistance during Margie's last 8 years of her life. A celebration of Margie's life will be held at 6:00pm on Thursday, June 25, 2015 at Owens-Pavlot & Rogers Funeral Service, Inc., 35 College St., Clinton, NY. In lieu of flowers please consider donations to your favorite charity.
