Marjorie Ann Hurst, 87, of Norwalk, passed away peacefully Sunday, June 25, 2023 surrounded by her family. She was born August 14, 1935, in Norwalk, to Russell and Ruth Davis Seiling.
Marjorie married Alvin Hurst, Sr. on January 18, 1953, and together they raised a family of 10 children. Marjorie worked alongside her husband on their grain and livestock farm as well as in housekeeping, laundry, and patient care in local nursing homes. She was an avid reader and enjoyed embroidering projects for family members. She also enjoyed bird watching. Her devotion to her Bible study and her Lord Jesus Christ was unparalleled, and her life reflected the love she believed we are to demonstrate to each other.
