Growing up in Enid, she graduated from Enid High School and Enid Business College. From there she began her career at St. Mary’s Hospital, where she worked as a licensed practical nurse. This is where she met her husband, Glen Thomas, also an LPN. Margie and Glen were married October 8, 1954, in Enid, where they made their home, and welcomed their only child Brian, in 1957. Once becoming widowed in 1967, Margie remained single and independent, raising her son, and working as an LPN at the Enid State School until she retired. She was also an active member of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church of Enid. A social butterfly, known for her witty sense of humor, Margie will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her.

She is survived by her granddaughter, Jessica Thomas of Enid; sister-in-law, Melba Brickman; niece, Linda Ross; nephew, Gary Brickman, as well as numerous great-nieces, nephews and cousins.
