Marjorie was born at home on May 13, 1926, in rural Monona, IA, the daughter of Hubert and Ruth (Kuthe) Sass.  She attended school in Monona, IA.

Marjorie married Harold Ball on February 7, 1945, in St. Paul's Lutheran Church, Monona, IA.

Marjorie (Marge) worked for many years in the Pet Department at Roshek's Department Store, and as a receptionist in the Appliance Service Department.  She then became a full-time Avon represenative, always winning top honors in the President's Club.  She loved her Avon customers and friends, and missed them dearly when she retired.  She was full of fun and always up for a good laugh.  Any day spent with family/friends was a "happy day" she said.

Marjorie is survived by six (6) children, Vicki (Tom) Houts, Leawood, KS, Lynn Ball, Dubuque, IA, Shari (John) Arthofer, East Dubuque, IL, Neil Ball (Jeanne), East Dubuque, IL, Ross Ball (special friend, Kelly Hauer), Dubuque, IA, and Cathi (Jeff) Timmerman, Lisbon, IA; (29) grandchildren; (31) great-grandchildren; and (2) great-great-grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her parents; a daughter-in-law, Nancy; a great-grandson, Kael; and a nephew, Allen.

The family would like to "thank" the staff and nurses at Hawkeye Care Center, in Asbury, and Hospice of Dubuque for the care, laughter, and kindness they provided Mom!
