Margie Minor Prosser's Obituary
Margie Minor Prosser (March 14, 1923 - November 10, 2016). Born in Virginia, one of twelve children of Tivis and Effie Minor, she was predeceased by her husband, James J. Prosser, and her grandson, John Robert Whitmore. She is survived by her children, Carolyn Whitmore, James Joseph Prosser, Jr., and Linda (Michael) Albright, grandchildren Susan Whitmore, Linda Whitmore-Ash, and Sean (Hailee) Sanders; Great grandchildren Davis Whitmore, Johnathan Whitmore, Carolynn Whitmore, Casey Ash, Catherine Whitmore, Carrie Ash, and William Sanders.
She was the office manager of The Bush Foundation of Minnesota (a non-profit charity), treasurer of The Pilot Club of Miami (a professional women's charity group), treasurer of the Thomas Minor Society (a genealogical research origination), plus she partnered with her husband in establishing one of the country's foremost industrial cleaning companies.
In 1947, Margie won the Miss Southern West Virginia beauty pageant (a stepping stone to the Miss West Virginia pageant). She attended Marshall College (University) of Huntington, WV where she met her husband and they were married in 1950. Margie and Jim moved with their growing family from Huntington to Pittsburg, PA, back to Huntington, then to Jacksonville, FL, ST Paul, MN, Miami, FL, and then to retirement in PT ST Lucie, FL. In PT ST Lucie, Margie again assisted Jim in the management of the UDT/SEAL Museum (celebrating WWII Frogmen to today's SEAL warriors). Margie was a common sight around her neighborhood lending a helping hand to neighbors in their time of need. She was a member of the Holy Family Catholic Church. In cooperation with her physician, physical therapist and trainer Margie helped produce and star in physical training program for the elderly at the age of 91. At the same time she also became well known for her basketball capabilities. She will be missed by her family, friends, neighbors, and extended church group.
Interment next to her beloved husband, Jim, will take place at South Florida National Cemetery in Lake Worth, Florida. All Masses at Holy Family Catholic Church in Port Saint Lucie will honor Margie in the Prayers of the Faithful this weekend.
