Marjorie Ball Obituary


MARJORIE ANN BALL
April 23, 1940 ~ June 29, 2017

It is with great sadness that the family of Marjorie Ann Ball, age 77 years, announces her passing on June 29, 2017 in Vancouver, WA, after a courageous battle with cancer. "Margie" was born to William and Christine (Christensen) Lasher on April 23, 1940 in Raymond, WA. Margie graduated from Grant High School, Portland OR, in June 1958. She spent much of her younger years in Portland, Oregon and later moved to the Vancouver, Washington area, after marrying Charles "Joe" W. Ball Jr. in 1959.
Margie was preceded in death by her parents; sister, Elaine Nichols; and son, Charles "Chuck" Ball III.
Margie is survived by her brother, John Lasher of Ridgefield, WA; daughters, Lisa Matney of Vancouver, Bridget Cabral of Vancouver, Tina Langborg of Florence, OR; 4 grandchildren, Travis Matney, Trevor Matney, Eddie Rothermel, and Jordan Langborg; 2 great-grandchildren, Bailey and Cooper; and her best friends, Sampson and Darrell.
Margie worked as an inspector for BPA and retired in 1994. Margie enjoyed reading, spending time outdoors, rock hunting, and being with her family and friends.
Family and friends are invited to attend a celebration of Margie's life on August 19, 2017 at 12:00 Noon. There will be a potluck picnic at Lewisville Park, 26411 NE Lewisville Hwy., Battle Ground, WA, at the Hemlock Picnic Shelter. Lewisville Park has always been a special place for family gatherings and fond memories.
Arrangements have been entrusted to Brown's Funeral Home in Camas, WA.

When I started my Federal career at BPA, at the young age of 18, Marjorie was assigned to train me. I was always grateful to her. She was kind, patience and showed me the ropes in the Procurement department. She was a true assest in the work place because of her strong work ethic. My favorite memory of Marjorie was her infectious laugh. If you heard it you would never forget it! Prayers to the family. God Bless.
