On Wednesday, July 20, 2022, Jesus took Margie's hand from Larry's and placed it in His own and walked off for her first day in Heaven.
Marjorie was born August 4, 1940 in Cherokee, OK to Robert and Virginia (Jantz) Mercer. She was raised in Enid and graduated from Enid High School in 1958. She married Larry Watson on February 24, 1962 at the El Torro Marine Base, Santa Anna, CA. After Larry was discharged from service, they moved to Enid. She worked at Beneficial Financial Co for 5 years and the Land Commission. They moved to Ponca City in 1994. Marge was co-owner and operator of LAM Communications for over 25 years. She was a former member of Davis Park Church where she sang in the choir. There she was a member of Eastern Heights Christian Church in Ponca City.
