Individual Details

Marjory Ruth Grantham

(15 Oct 1929 - 12 Apr 2019)



She grew up in the Stratford area and graduated from Stratford high School. She married Harold Shults on December 21, 1947 in Stratford. They made their home there and raised their family. Margie was a hair dresser and for years and had her own shop in her home just north of the school. Which made it very convenient for all the school kids to go get something really good to eat and use all her hair spray and make up in the shop so they would look good for the school activities. Many of Jimmie, Barbara and Kays classmates have spent the night at the Shults home. She was like a mom to many of the kids that grew up here. She worked hard all her life and one of the many jobs she loved was working at the Senior Citizens Center where she not only cooked and cleaned she helped people sign up for all kinds of help, she called people to make sure they got their flu shots and gave them times to be there. She called all the people at the center her babies. She was elected Mrs. Peach Queen in 2017 and the title fit her to a tea. She was Mrs. Stratford to all of us and we will surly miss her.
