Margaret Boden Obituary
Margaret 'Margie' Boden
Sioux City
Margaret "Margie" Boden, 91, of Sioux City passed away on Friday, Feb. 25, 2022, at a local care facility.
Services will be at 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday at Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church. Visitation will be one hour prior to the service. Burial will be at Calvary Cemetery. Arrangements are with Meyer Brothers Colonial Chapel. Online condolences may be directed to www.meyerbroschapels.com.
Margie was born on Sept. 18, 1930 in Le Mars, Iowa, to Nicholas and Mae Thoma. On Aug. 23, 1952, she married John L. Boden at St. Boniface Church. The two shared 67 years of marriage, until John passed away on June 15, 2020, in Sioux City. She lovingly referred to him as "Johnny" and together they raised six children and adored their grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Margie was a member of Blessed Sacrament/St. Michael Church for many years.
More than anything, she cherished spending time with family, attending her children and grandchildren's activities, playing bridge in several bridge groups, supporting our Catholic Schools, sewing, making afghans and holiday décor, decorating for every holiday, playing golf at the Sioux City Boat Club, and traveling with Johnny.
She is survived by her children Steve (Suzan), Mark (Kathy), Douglas (Susan), Michael (Shelley), Julie (Al), and Diane (Darrell); 14 grandchildren Cassandra Boden, Brad Boden (Lindsey), Jenna Smith (Keenan), Christopher Boden, Ben Boden (Page), Daniel Boden (Colette), Laura Corbett (Chad), Nicholas Boden, Allison Boden, David Stubblefield (Myah), Matt Stubblefield, Andy Stubblefield, Tyler Alexander, and Kayla Alexander; 12 great-grandchildren Briggs and Pierce Boden, Noah and Colton Kraft, Davis and Catherine Boden, Brighton and Fordham Boden, Avery and Harper Corbett, and Samson and Stella Stubblefield; and sibling Lowell Thoma.
She was preceded in death by her husband, John; parents; siblings, Kenneth (Ruth) Thoma, and Connie (Leonard) Herrin; and a sister-in-law Joanne Thoma.
The family would like to thank the staff at Holy Spirit Retirement Home, MercyOne, and Family Medicine for the care they gave Margie.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Bishop Heelan Catholic Schools, 50 13th Street, Sioux City, IA 51103.
