ice was held at 8 p.m. on Thursday,
June 12, at the First Lutheran Church

Beach with the Rev. Roger Dieterle
officiating. Interment was held in the
Medora Cemetery in Medora follow-
ing the luncheon at the church. Sil-

dren. She attended school in Beach
and graduated with the class of 1947
at Beach High School. She attended
North Dakota State University at
Fargo. She worked at Bublitz Jew-
elry and the Milldrella Shop in
Beach.
She was married to Richard
Mosser in 1949 at the original stone
Lutheran Church in Beach. As new-
lyweds, they moved to a ranch home
35 miles north of Medora along the
Little Missouri River. The two-bed-
room house was powered by a 32-
volt power plant, which didn't run
the washing machine. She heated
water in copper tubs on the stove for
baths and washing clothes. There
was no indoor plumbing until 1960.
In 1966 the Mossers added a ranch
north of Beach.
The children attended a one-room
schoolhouse where Marge was sec-
retary-treasurer of the Annear School
District. She was also on the board
of Pearl Township for many years.

from eighth grade, Marge moved to
Beach so they could attend high
school and commuted to the ranch on
weekends. They built a home in
Beach in 1973 where she resided
since.
She worked at the Farmers &
Merchants Bank in Beach as a teller
for 12 years.
Marjorie was a member of the
Thelen Homemakers Club where her
grandmother, Marie Geyer, was a
charter member. She belonged to the
Cattlewomen and Cowbells of
Medora; was First Lutheran Church
Parish treasurer for more than 20
years, and a member of the church
circles and WELCA. She was a faith-
ful supporter of Badlands Ministries
and helped head up the fund drive for
the new camp facilities. She loved
the Medora Musical and attended
several times a season. The Burning
Hills Singers visited her and sang at
her bedside on June 5. She also loved
trips, whether crossing the Little
Missouri on sled, horseback or car or
traveling with family to Norway on
three occasions, to Germany and
England with her daughter and
Hawaii with her sister, Eleanore.
She was an outstanding cook and
baker. She hosted many family gath-
erings at her ranch home along the
Little Missouri River and in Beach.
She was a gracious lady known for
her kindness and generosity.
