Marjorie was born on April 27, 1921 in Le Mars, Iowa to George and Elsie (Idiker) Casper.  She and Lawrence “Larry” Ladenthin were united in marriage on October 12, 1940 in Plymouth County, Iowa.

Marjorie and Larry, along with their children, farmed for over 34 years near Kingsley, Iowa.

She baked wedding cakes for young couples in three states, all while helping on the farm.  One of her biggest loves was for her chickens.  She always had a large hatchery.

Marjorie will be lovingly remembered by her granddaughter, Holly Stevens of Prescott, Arizona; her grandson, Jason Ladenthin of Sioux City; and her great-grandson, Joshua Smith of Sioux City.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Larry and her sons, Randy, Roger and Reginald.  May you rest in peace, dear Grandma.
