Marjorie Ann
Berry
August 30, 1949 – December 2, 2017
Marjorie "Marge/Margie" Ann (Klimp) Berry, age 68, of Dearborn, passed away peacefully in her sleep, at her home, wrapped in her husband's arms, in the early morning of December 2, 2017. Marge was born on August 30, 1949 in Kalamazoo, MI to John A. Klimp and Margaret E. Weinberg, who both preceded her in passing.
Marge is survived by her husband Michael (71). Michael and Margie were together for over forty seven years and married forty six. Marge is also survived by her daughter Jahna (43), her son Ethan (40), his spouse Shannon (41), her daughters from a previous marriage; Alexis (22) and Hailey (18), and Alexis's sons Landon (2) and Lincoln (7mths). Margie is also survived by five siblings; Ron (Beth), Don (Hertha), John (Jill), Jim (Julie) and her sister Mary (Jim) as well as 24 nieces and nephews, and 40 great nieces and nephews.
Many will remember Margie's warm smile and her willingness to offer help as she checked books out from the desk at The Henry Ford Centennial Library.
Margie also owned and operated Mother's Love Daycare, Inc. from 1992-2004. Her "kids" were very much a part of her heart and she kept in touch with as many of them as she could over the years.
Marge was cremated in accordance with the wishes of both herself and her family.
