Marie was born May 10, 1946 in Benham, Kentucky to June Thurman.Marie was a cook her whole life and enjoyed the small town cafes. In her spare time Marie enjoyed cards. She was a mean poker player and I don’t think she ever lost. She enjoyed gambling and traveling. She had a gypsy heart. Later in life, her main thrill was playing cards with her great-grandkids. Marie is survived by her daughter Rhonda McGinley of Dillon, MT; brother Ray Thurman (Betty) of Virginia; four grandchildren, Conrad McGinley of Lima, MT, Tiffany Torres of Great Falls, Britany Rooley (Justin) of Dillon, MT, and Rebecca McGinley of Dillon, MT; and sixgreat-grandchildren, Quincy, Ivy and Cian Torres, and Gracie, Harlow and Alexander Rooley.
