Marjorie Janet Kelleher

Marjorie, "Marge" was born July 7 1931 to Agnes E. Love and Joseph Love in Brookline Massachusetts. She was one of 13 children and last surviving member of the Love Family. Marge married John "Jack" Kelleher on September 12, 1952 at the U.S. Army Post Chapel, Fort Benjamin Harrison, Indiana. She was a professional homemaker and wonderful mother, grandmother "gaga" to her and 10 children, 10 grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren. She truly loved children and had a special place in her heart for kids. Mom to her own, as well as neighborhood kids who called her mom or gaga.

Marjorie was not afraid to speak her mind. She was an avid gardener, bowler in her younger days, loved reading and talking to everyone. Yes, everyone, those in the neighborhood, children and moms she came across in grocery stores. She enrolled in the Women's Health Initiative Study, which began in 1991.

She wanted to help present and future generations. She counted fat grams, read those labels and adhered to a healthy diet.

Upon her death, her wish was to donate her body to Boston University School of Medicine, Anatomical Gift Program. Donating one's body to medical science is often premeditated and considered the ultimate selfless act.

No service will be held at this time. Upon the return of her ashes from Boston University School of Medicine, a Celebration of Life will be held.
