Marjorie was born to John J. and Florence W. Bybee in the family home on Ridge Avenue in Idaho Falls. During her high school years, she played drums in IFHS Marching Band and met Karl T. Homer. World War II interrupted their courtship as Karl joined the Marine Corps and fought in the Pacific. Karl and Marjorie were married five days after VJ day in Salt Lake Temple. Marjorie loved and touched so many people, and they loved her in return. While raising six children, she managed to teach dozens of other young women how to sew and cook through the Bonneville county 4H programs. She was a member of the Idaho Falls Music Club and the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers. She belonged to a dinner club, and a sewing club that met every month for many years. Those groups provided lifelong friendships. She organized the first library at Longfellow Elementary School. With Karl, she served a three year mission in San Jose, CA, where she served as Mission Mother. Karl and Marjorie raised six children. Survivors included: John(Carol Homer), Margaret ( George Hopkin), Ellen (Creed Rowan), Elizabeth (Wayland Adams), Karla (Ashton), and Barbara (Reed Jenson); siblings John Bybee, JoAnne Hopkins and Martha Vlahos and brother-in-law Quinton (Kathie) Homer. Preceding were her sweetheart Karl, brother Bill, sister Marilyn and son-in-law, Dave Ashton. She taught her children and her missionaries love and respect and manners, but most of all, she taught them faith in Jesus Christ through her example and experiences. Funeral Services held July 20th at Wood Funeral Home, Ammon.
