Marie was a loving mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. The majority of her life was in the garment industry and the farm life.

Preceding her in death, her daughter Sandra L. Shoe, of Raytown, MO; her son, Jerry Birk of Pleasant Hill, MO; her husbands, Walter A. Birk of Stockton, MO and Harry Elliott of Topeka, KS.
Her final resting place will be at Stockton Cemetery, Stockton, MO. Grave site service will be 11:00 am at Stockton Cemetery by Brumback Funeral Home. 306 N. High St., Stockton, MO 65785.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to: Marion County Legacy House. 3231 S.W. 34th Ave., Ocala, FL.
