Marjorie L. Davis

Ossipee, NH – Formerly of Malden, MA

Marjorie L. Davis, 82, of Ossipee, NH, and longtime resident of Malden, MA, passed away peacefully on August 5, 2025, following a brief illness.

Born and raised in Malden, Marjorie was the beloved daughter of Roy and Margaret (Stiles) Davis. She graduated from Malden High School in 1961, earned her bachelor's degree in education from Bridgewater State College in 1965, and went on to receive her master's degree in education from Salem State College in 1978.

Marjorie devoted her professional life to teaching, spending many years as a dedicated educator at Forestdale Elementary School in Malden. She was known for her kindness, patience, and commitment to her students, often going above and beyond to help them succeed. Her caring nature left a lasting impression on generations of children and her fellow educators.

A devoted daughter, Marjorie lovingly cared for her parents throughout their lives. In her free time, she enjoyed gardening, traveling in her younger years, and spending summer days with family in Ossipee. She had a deep love for animals, especially dogs, and was especially fond of her faithful companion, Bella. Marjorie also found joy and friendship as a member of the Red Hat Society.

She will be dearly missed by her nieces and nephews: Fred Davis (MaryAnn), Bill Davis (Laura), Scott Davis (Barbara), Susan Kelleher (Paul), Bruce Davis (Rebecca), Karen Davis, Ken Davis (Wendy), and Sandy Gallagher (Tony), along with many extended family members and friends.

Marjorie was predeceased by her parents, Roy and Margaret Davis, and her beloved brothers, Warren R. Davis (Lois) and Ralph E. Davis (Priscilla).

The family wishes to express their heartfelt gratitude for the exceptional care and friendship provided by Granite VNA-especially Heidi and Cheryl-and her devoted caregiver, Christina.

A graveside service will be held on Monday, August 11, 2025 at 12pm at Woodlawn Cemetery in Everett, MA.
