Marie was educated in the Jenkins County Schools. She earned her Bachelor of

volunteered as a 4-H leader during that time.

Upon retirement Marie and Bennie traveled on a motorcycle throughout the United
States camping. In 1993 they began cruising the Bahamas and the Caribbean as
far south as Venezuela on their 42 foot sailboat, Silent Joy. In 2008 when she
was diagnosed with lymphoma cancer they returned to the States so she could
