Margi was born on October 3, 1962, to Anne Maxwell and Warren Turner in Washington D.C. She was baptized in 1969 at Infant of Prague Church and confirmed in 1976 at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Ida Grove. She went to grade school in California and North Carolina and eventually moved to Ida Grove where she graduated from Ida Grove High School in 1981. She went on to Iowa Lakes Community College to study art.
In March of 1985 Margi married Myron Stanley, and during that union they were blessed with a daughter, Natalie. They were married for 10 years. In 1995 Margi started dating her husband David Toepfer "Super Dave" of Storm Lake, IA. They married July 12, 2003, and stayed happily married until Dave's passing on September 6th, 2023.
Margi was a CNA for the majority of her adult career. Her years spent at BV Manor were the years she treasured most. She loved and adored her residents and her coworkers. She eventually became an activity director. She enjoyed playing volleyball, hosting special events, and doing crafts with the residents. After the closing of BV Manor, she went on to the hospital and was an activity director at Hope Harbor, until the beginning of 2025 she was no longer capable of working due to illness.
Margi enjoyed spending time with her husband Dave, her daughter & grandchildren, & her family and friends. She made sure to always get the most "unique" and meaningful gifts and always did an annual scavenger hunt at Christmas time where everyone had a different set of clues and eventually found twenty dollars. Margi was extremely talented. She made lots of cakes for graduations and birthdays throughout the years and painted many pictures. She loved to make people laugh and told the "best" jokes. She also enjoyed gardening, laying out in the sun, and playing with her dogs Buddy and Sammy.
