Marjorie Alfreda Lang was born on March 21, 1925, near Minneota, in Lyon County, Minnesota. She was the only child of George and Louise (Stelter) Bengtson. She attended country school near Tyler, Minnesota, and then met and married Virgil Lang in Tyler on August 28, 1946.
Marjorie and Virgil settled on a farm 2 miles Southeast of Russell and had 6 children. They were involved in the Minnesota Farmers Union along with local and state duties in the political field. After Virgil’s death in June of 2000, Marjorie moved out to Sturgis, South Dakota, to be near her son, Virlane. She then moved back to Lake Crystal to be near her other children.
Marjorie was a brave, strong, and courageous woman; never afraid to roll up her sleeves and help those in need or get something done on the farm. Marjorie’s enjoyments in life included singing in the church choir, playing Hawaiian Steel Guitar, or tending to her enormous garden. Anyone in need of fresh vegetables or meat could always find it at the Lang’s. She will be remembered fondly and lovingly as she enters her new home.
