MARJORIE RHODE (RANKIN)

April 19, 1924 ~ June 27, 2008- Marjorie (Rankin) Rhode, 84, of Vancouver, WA, passed away on June 27, 2008. She was born in April, 1924 in Coffee Creek, MT to Art and Golda Rankin.

Marj moved with her parents to the Ireland District of Fern Prairie, WA in 1926. Marj attended a one room school, where, on the first day of school, she met the man she would marry in 1941, when he, Robert Rhode, joined the Navy.

Marj was well known to downtown Camas, WA merchants and shoppers. She worked at Cornet and at Coast to Coast Hardware. She later worked as a real estate agent. After her husbands’ retirement from the paper mill, they became owners of the Beacon Rock Mobile Home Park from 1978 to 1988. Since that time they enjoyed living in Vancouver. Marj loved playing cards: bingo, Bridge, pinochle, scrabble and trips to nearby casinos.

\"She was a beloved sister, and a wonderful mother, making each of her children feel special. She was much loved and will be missed by all who knew her.\"

She is survived by her five children: Joan Huston, Linda MacGregor, Bob Rhode Jr., Don Rhode, all of Washougal, WA and Mary Rhode of Portland, OR; three sisters; two brothers; 10 grandchildren; 13 great-grandchildren; and six great-great-grandchildren.

Marj is preceded in death by her husband of 66 years, Robert Rhode, Sr.  A private service will be held by the family. Donations may be made to the Fern Prairie Grange.
