Marie Cargil
November 9, 1933
November 15, 2023

Marie was called home on November 15, 2023. Born 11/9/1933 and raised in Mississippi where she met and married Bobby R. Cargil. As a military wife, was stationed in Germany twice and loved the history, learning about where she lived and other countries she visited.
Preceded in death by her brother JC Hood, sister Stella Calhoun and husband of 54 years, Bobby Cargil. She is survived by her daughter, Lauren (Mark) Connolly. She loved crossword puzzles, shopping, lunching with friends, baseball, football, dogs, and Christmas - she also knew all the answers on Jeopardy. Her quick wit, humor, stories, thoughtfulness, and generosity will be forever missed.
Service will be held at a later date in Mississippi.

I always loved visiting Reecy as a kid when we lived in Colorado Springs! She would always talk to me at my level, would show me all of her flowers, cool stuff from Germany, and her fabulous Christmas collection, and always had the best treats! I´ll always have happy memories of her, Bobby, and Lauren along with their cute doggos Mandy and Erdbeere/Errbear/Errie! She was so much fun!
