Marjorie Buckle

Marjorie Buckle was born on January 18, 1938 in the Wadena Saskatchewan Hospital, only daughter to Robert Brock and Lillian Marjorie Brock (Nesbitt), and she had one brother James McKay Brock.
The second world war was starting, so the family moved to Victoria, BC as Marjorie’s father joined the Navy and was stationed out on the pacific coast.
When the war was over the family moved to Saskatoon for a time and then onto Lloydminster and finally settling down in Yorkton, SK where her father was manager of the Singer Sewing Manufacturing Company.

Throughout her life, Marjorie enjoyed singing in church and school, and music festivals.  Her finest moment was when she won the IODE scholarship, under the age of 16 category, for her singing performance.  She was always proud of that award.

When Marjorie was a young girl, she enjoyed outdoor games of baseball, volleyball, skipping and running.  In later life she enjoyed curling on teams from the Yorkton Collegiate and then as the years passed from Rokeby, Hilltop, and Tonkin curling clubs.

Marjorie met and married her soul mate Dywaine Buckle on October 19, 1957.  They were blessed with three children, Dennis Robert (Angela Magdalena), David McKay (Sheila Mary), Deborah Anne (Darcy Dean); four grandchildren, Justin Caleb, Travis Dywaine, Daniele Ernest, Thomas Richard.

Marjorie and Dywaine operated a dairy farm for 25 years and then operated a grain and beef cattle operation until they were ready to retire.

Marjorie took time off the farm to work at day care in Yorkton and then went to work at East Central Home Care district.  Marjorie loved her time spent at day care with the children and then with the elderly at home care.

Marjorie and Dywaine decided to retire to Penticton, BC for ten wonderful years, until Dywaine’s health started to deteriorate, and so the decision was made to return to Yorkton and live comfortably at Fairview Arms Retirement Home.

Marjorie was predeceased by her husband Dywaine, aged 79 years; her father Robert A. Brock, aged 59 years; her mother Lillian Marjorie, 84 years; her grandmother Hattie Jemimah; grandmother Hanna Nesbitt.
