Marjorie Harrison, age 77, of Debary, FL died on January 5, 2017 at the Fish Memorial Hospital in Orange City, FL. Her brother Dale and her friend Marie, were at her side. "Marge" had recently been diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer which had spread throughout her body. She was preceded in death by her husband John Harrison (FL),her parents, Dale & Elizabeth Dwyer (VT), her brother Stanley Dwyer (VT), who died at age 7 & her son Lee Bessette (VT), who died as a passenger in a car crash at age 16. Marge is survived by her two sons: Steven Bessette (VT), & Michael Bessette, grandson Garret Bessette (VT), two brothers: Wayne (VT) & Dale Dwyer (SC), & sister Muriel Sedergren (VT), three nieces: Anita Hughes (VT), Penny Conlin (VT) & Heather Bouchard (VT), three grandnieces: Sarah Sheldrick (VT), Ashely Austin (VT) & Jennifer Hughes (VT), and three grandnephews: Jeremy Hughes (PA), Wayne Conlin (VT), & Shane Bouchard (VT). The third generation children are: Jayce & Reece Sheldrick (VT), Mason Harrington (VT), & June Austin (VT).
The Memorial Service will be held at Emmaus Lutheran Church, in Orange City, FL on January 17th at 1:00 PM. A Memorial Service is also planned in late June at the Union Church in Proctor, VT (for the convenience of her family and friends in Vermont). Marjorie was a native Vermonter, even though she lived out-of-state most of her adult life (mostly FL). She retired from the Orlando Police Force in 1994, after serving over 20 years in the fingerprint, ID & permit department.
Marge was a kind, and gentle person, that loved people and easily made friends. She loved the LORD, sought guidance from His Word daily (and since moving back to Debary), has helped the Church putting on the "Wonderful Wednesday meals". Marge was always eager to help others, and we shall all miss her engaging smile. She was generous, beyond her means, to those in need.
