Marjorie Shea Obituary

Marjorie May
Montgomery Shea
1934-2017
Marjorie May Montgomery Shea passed away on September 20, 2017. She was born in Saratoga, Wyoming on May 18, 1934. She grew up in Vernal, Utah and graduated from the University of Utah. Marge was married to John Charles "Tad" Shea for over sixty years. They lived in Libya for part of the 1960's, traveled the world, and enjoyed socializing with a large network of friends. She was a devoted and generous daughter to her parents, sister to her siblings, wife to her husband, friend to all, and, mostly importantly, mother and grandmother to her sons and grandchildren. Marge will be dearly missed by all. She is survived by her husband, Tad Shea, her sons, Scott, Jeff, and Michael Shea; her grandchildren, Patrick, Bailey, Brandon, Kevin, and Kathleen; and her siblings, Judy Kraft and Jack, Terry, and Dennis Montgomery; and her daughters-in-law, Elaine, Kelly, and Kara. A graveside service will be held at a later date in Vernal, Utah.
