Mrs. Nathlich was born Nov. 8, 1926, in Charter Oak, Iowa, the daughter of August and Viola (Pautsch) Neddermeyer. She was baptized and confirmed into the Lutheran faith at St. John's Lutheran Church in Charter Oak. She received her education at St. John's Parochial School.
She married Orville Nathlich on March 7, 1948, at the church in Charter Oak. To this union one daughter was born. The couple lived and farmed for a time near Mapleton and later lived near Ute, Iowa, and in the Anthon, Iowa, area. Orville died Sept. 13, 1996. Marge moved back to Mapleton in 1998.
She worked as a cook in the Correctionville (Iowa) Nursing and Rehab Center for several years.

She also was a member of the Sunshine Club and the Neighborhood Casino, a group of friends with whom she enjoyed playing cards. She had a passion for gardening and took pride in mowing and maintaining lawns and yards with a love for the outdoors. Her greatest love, however, was found in her family.
