Nana was born on September 18, 1916, in Port Arthur. She graduated from Thomas Jefferson High School and married Willis Honeycutt in 1935. Together, they had a beautiful family consisting of three daughters; three sons-in-law; six grandchildren; and four and a half great-grandchildren (the “half” is due on her ninety-ninth birthday). Marjorie was the center of this loving family to whom she was totally devoted. They all affectionately referred to her as “Nana.” Nothing gave Nana more joy than the many years she spent at “Holly” beach with family and friends, where she enjoyed fishing, crabbing, and most of all, cooking the catch for her family.

Marjorie is survived by her daughters, Edith Barclay and her husband, Bill “Cooter” and Dottie Schulz and her husband, Gene, all of Beaumont; and Sue Griffith and her husband, Bryan, of Baton Rouge, Louisiana; grandchildren, Kelli Barclay, Lori Barclay, Ellen Schulz, Meredith Hise, Derek Myers, and Reggie Griffith; and great-grandchildren, Avery Hise, Will Hise, Ty Griffith, and Greyson Myers.

She is preceded in death by her husband, Willis Honeycutt.

The family gives thanks to God for so many wonderful, vibrant years with Nana. We are grateful to all of her caregivers especially Martha Williams and Slavka Gianolopulu, whose devotion and friendship to our Nana has touched our hearts deeply.

Marjorie passed away Wednesday, July 8, 2015, at her home in Beaumont, surrounded by her loving family. She will be missed but will forever live on in the spirit and soul of every person who was fortunate enough to know her.
