Marjorie A. Tau passed away at the age of 89, surrounded by family in her home in Mesa, AZ on Friday, December 13, 2024. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Frank.

Marge was born on January 21, 1935, in Edinboro, PA. She was the 6th child of 12 children born to Cecil and Edna Alward. She graduated from Edinboro High in 1953.

On June 6, 1953, Marge married Frank A. Tau. Frank, Marge and their 4 children moved to Mesa, AZ in 1968. Marge spent most of her career as a well-loved registrar and secretary in Mesa Public Schools. Marge and Frank regularly attended Mesa Nazarene Church, where Marge made many friends and was highly involved in music and missions. She loved time spent with their Sunday school class and game nights with church friends and her family. Marge loved nature, morning walks, cheering on the AZ sports teams, time with the Lord in devotions, and sending encouraging notes and cards to her loved ones. She was a devoted Christian, wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother, who never missed an opportunity to love, serve, and spend time with her family.

She is survived by her four children and their spouses: Mark (Anne Marie), Fred (Marcella), Phil (Julie), and April McElrath (Steve); 12 grandchildren, 28 great grandchildren, and sisters: Bea Cole (Ray), Lois Richardson (Darrell) and Carol Perlman (Marc). Marjorie was preceded in death by her parents, Cecil and Edna Alward; brothers: Russell, James, Charles, Marvin, John and Thomas; sisters: Irene Biby and Shirley Lewis; her granddaughter, Debra Tau and great grandson, Elijah Marks.

Marge’s legacy of dedication and faithfulness to the Lord, her family and church will live on in the hearts of those who knew her.
