Marjorie Bogart

Glen Carbon |

Marjorie P. Bogart, 92, passed away on Thursday, February 2, 2017 at Meridian Village in Glen Carbon.

She was born on February 28, 1924 in Murrayville, IL, the daughter of Harvey and Josephine (Wilson) Hayes.

Marjorie attended Main Street Methodist Church in Alton. She spent several years working for GTE, relocating to Buffalo, NY, before returning to the Midwest in 1974. While in the Bloomington/Normal area, she and her many lasting friendships from her time there and from Crestwicke Country Club continued with her for the rest of her life. She began her own cosmetic and color analysis business in 1982, and eventually relocated to Godfrey where she joined her daughters at Josephine’s. She enjoyed many years developing and preparing the very popular “fashion shows” in the tea room and will always be remembered for her passion for fashion, although family was always her first love.

She is survived by two daughters, Sandra (Bob) Cleveland of Bethalto, Sherri (Fred) Whitworth of Edwardsville; five grandchildren, Troy Whitworth and Cindy Lendhart, Scott and Dusty Whitworth, Jamie and Ryan O’Day, Jason and Jeanne Cleveland, Jenny Cleveland and Ed Heath; two siblings, Agusta Zeisel of Fairview Heights, Lena Deitz of Delaware; eight great grandchildren and several nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.

She is preceded in death by her husband; two brothers, Murell and Maurice Hayes; and sister, Francis Grimm.

Visitation will be on Tuesday, February 7, 2017, from 10 a.m. until time of service at 11 a.m. at Elias, Kallal and Schaaf Funeral Home in Godfrey with Pastor Tim Pate officiating.

Burial will follow at Murrayville City Cemetery.
