Margery Sue Brondyke, a resident of Woodstock, GA, and formerly of Grand Haven, MI, Seneca, SC, and Sturgis, MI, passed into the presence of her Savior on November 12, 2019. She was 87.

Margery was born on October 26,1932, in Wabash, IN, to James and Phoebe Martin. She married Douglas Brondyke of Muskegon, MI, on July 4, 1953.

Mrs. Brondyke received both a BS and an MA from Bob Jones University in Greenville, SC. She taught English at Mona Shores High School for several years and then English, Speech, and Drama at Grand Haven Jr. High School, from which she retired in 1986.

Due to her faith in Jesus Christ as Savior, Margery was always an active member of a local church, serving at Little Black Lake Baptist Church in Norton Shores, Robinson Baptist Church in Grand Haven, University Baptist Church in Clemson, SC, and finally at Fish Lake Bible Church in Sturgis, where her eldest son is the pastor. She directed many dramatic and musical programs in her years at those churches. In her final years, attendance at Lebanon Baptist Church in Roswell, GA, gave her much joy and many good friends.
