Marjorie died Thursday, May 5, 2016 surrounded by her loving family at the Albert Lea Good Samaritan Center. She was 92 years of age.
Marjorie was born March 3, 1924 in St Charles, MN, the daughter of Glenn and Florence (Raddatz) Sussex. She graduated from high school in Fulda, MN. She was united in marriage to Cletus Effle and they made their home in Albert Lea. Together they spent much time traveling the country visiting friends and family.

In her free time Marjorie enjoyed reading, working the hard crossword puzzles, scrapbooking and trips to the casino. She loved e-mailing friends and family but the love of her life was the time spent with her family, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Her favorite saying was "always be grateful".
