Marcia Raye Byrd Ferguson was born on Saturday, February 17, 1940 to Walker and Elma Speight.
She passed away on Friday, August 19, 2022 at Alcoa Pines Health & Rehabilitation Center.
Marcia was born in Shreveport and raised at Barr Lake. In 1957, she married the late Eldry Preston Ferguson with whom she raised four children, Karla, Gregg, Kristi, and Wesley. For the last 29 years, Marcia made her home in Benton, the last three being spent being doted on by the residents and employees of Alcoa Pines.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Walker and Elma Speight, sister, Patsy Jo Weaver, brothers Kenneth Speight and JW Speight, and special grandson, Ryan Hunter Brown.
Marcia carried many titles to those near and dear to her, Mama, Mamaw, Aunt Marcia, Fergie, and Ma Ferguson. She was known and loved by everyone she met. Marcia served as a hostess at Roller-Ballard Funeral Home and worked at Walmart in Many, Louisiana and in Benton and Bryant, Arkansas, managing the Jewelry Department, but the majority of her life was spent as a seamstress. There was nothing you could show her that she couldn't sew, from alterations to prom and wedding dresses.
She is survived by her four children, Karla Knippers and husband, Benny, of Many, Louisiana, Gregg Ferguson and wife, Stacey, of Ft. Jessup, Louisiana, Kristi Ferguson Treptow, of Many, Louisiana and Wesley Ferguson, of Florien, Louisiana, nine grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren, sister, Onita Lynn Speight of Lake Charles, Louisiana, brother, Ellery Speight, also of Lake Charles, other special family members, Pat Treptow and Erica Ferguson and a host of extended family and friends.
Though Marcia's health kept her from doing many of the things she loved, she showed her heart-felt strength until the very end. She will be dearly missed.
Pallbearers will be Heath Brown, Rylan DeLatin, Gregg Ferguson, Rusty Ferguson, Triston Ferguson, Ryan Palmer, Pat Treptow and Chris Weaver.
Honorary Pallbearers will be Benny Knippers and John Patrick Treptow.
