MARGO SCHUSTER
Marion
Margo Mae (Laurent) Schuster, 64, of Marion, lost her battle with cancer Sunday, Oct. 19, 2014. A visitation will be held Friday, Oct. 24, from 4 to 7 p.m. at Murdoch Funeral Home and Cremation Service, Manchester. A
private family graveside service will be Saturday at Rose Hill Cemetery, Camanche.
Margo was born Dec. 2, 1949, to Joseph and Marian (Shafer) Laurent in Clinton, Iowa. She was a graduate of Clinton High School. As a child she loved family vacations to Lake Delhi. After graduation she moved to Delhi, Iowa, and opened a family restaurant. She married David Schustersich on Sept. 19, 1981. Two children were born into this union. They later divorced. Margo then moved back to Clinton in 2000. In 2004, she moved to Marion to be closer to enjoy her children and grandchildren.
She was a member of the United Methodist Church. Her most important job was being a mother to Andy and Megan, but she enjoyed working as a cake decorator. One of her most prized pastimes was watching her children and grandchildren participate in all of their sporting events. Margo loved baking and sharing recipes with her family and friends, and took pride preparing meals for family and get-togethers.
Margo is survived by her children, Andy (Amanda) Schuster and Megan (Josh) Burger; grandchildren, Brayden, Madilyn, Mallory, Maddox, Marshall, Blake, Dylan, Krayton and Madux; her mother, Marian Laurent; a brother, Rick (Louise) Laurent; and nieces, Lori, Lisa and Lindsay.
She was preceded in death by her father, Joseph; and a daughter, Andrea.
In lieu of flowers, a memorial will be established by the family.
