[59922] Marjorie's extended obituary: "On July 3, 2025, the Reverend Marjorie Carlye (White) Gould - known to most as Marge ('just don't call me Large Marge!') - passed peacefully after a short stay in hospice following a long life full of laughter and love. She was 92, loved hats, cats, music, her family, and her Lord. And she never stopped making people laugh, right up to the adoring EMTs who brought her to the Community Hospice House in Merrimack, NH where she spent her final days resting with family and listening to Johnny Cash. Marjorie was born on December 28th, 1932, in the tiny coastal town of Jonesport, Maine. Her father, Earl White dug clams in the summer, raked blueberry fields in the fall, plowed snow by horse in the winter, and was caretaker of Bayview Cemetery, where members of the White family had been buried since the Civil War. Her mother, Juanita (Reed) White, lost her parents at a young age and was fostered by her elder brother on the Passamaquoddy Reservation at Pleasant Point, where he had married a tribal member. Both of Marjorie's parents could trace their ancestry to the initial settlements of Maine in the early 1600s - from the first boats to follow the Mayflower and build trading posts in Kittery and York - and several forefathers are recorded as veterans of the Revolutionary War, including one who served at the Battle of Machias, the first naval engagement in America's war of independence. The challenges and cheers of Marjorie's Depression-era childhood forged her lifelong resilience and work ethic. She raked in the blueberry fields during harvest time, keeping pace with her parents from a young age. Their home, which Earl had built himself, had no electricity, no plumbing, and no heating beyond a small woodstove; when the weather turned cold, Earl would pile cut sod in the stairwells and windows for insulation and the entire family would spend the winter huddled under blankets near the stove for warmth. They had no well on the property, so the family gathered water by bucket at her grandmother's nearby. Meanwhile, Juanita had learned on the reservation to gather clay that was rich in nutrients and bake them into small cakes for the children to eat to avoid deficiencies. Yet amidst this hardship, there was joy, tenderness, and plenty of jokes that formed her legendary love and sense of humor. Earl would keep track of where those who could not afford headstones were buried at Bayview and guide their families where to place flowers; when strangers asked what he did for a living, he'd snap his suspenders and wryly say 'oh I've got a big job, have a few hundred people under me.' On Christmas Eve, he'd take deer legs and use the hooves to make 'reindeer tracks' in the snow on the roof to show the children where Santa had been the next morning. Meanwhile, Juanita, who had four children by the age of 25, would run around with the kids and teach them Passamaquoddy songs and dances that Marjorie remembered for the rest of her life. Even the clay served as a source of good humor: well into her eighties, it was stock Marjorie bit to tell people, with mock-wide eyes and a mischievous grin, that 'as a little girl I ate dirt, and I liked it - in fact, I can still taste it, and want some now!' Marjorie attended a one-room schoolhouse in Jonesport, where all students from first to eighth grade were instructed by one teacher, Mrs. McReavy. She had one other member of her class, Arthur, a good friend except for one notable fistfight over the existence of Santa Claus (with Nana being on Team Santa). At the regional Jonesport-Beals High School, Marjorie was president of the inaugural National Honors Society and voted to deliver the 'class prophecy' by her peers. The most important friend Marjorie made in her childhood, however, was Jesus. As she told it, when she was about 15 years old, with no prior exposure to Christianity at home, she had a powerfully vivid dream of herself attending the crucifixion of a man, without knowing who the man was or why he was being nailed to a wooden cross. A few months later, a neighboring family invited her to attend a church service with their own children, and upon entering the chapel she was shocked to find that she had dreamed of Jesus before knowing Him. From that moment on, Marjorie dedicated her life to her Lord and Saviour. She began attending Sunday services, walking or biking the nearly ten-mile round trip on her own, or sometimes riding home in the back of her neighbor's buggy. When the school asked her to deliver her prophecy at a graduation dance, she politely declined, until they offered to turn it into a relatively more pious luncheon. And although she was encouraged to attend a traditional academic college as a standout student, she was determined to pursue ministerial training to spread the Gospel, and as always, when she was motivated to do something, Marjorie moved fast. After graduating high school at 17, she traveled across the country by bus to work and study the Bible: first, to New Jersey, where she worked at a store to save money for school, and then to St. Paul Minnesota, where she worked as an au pair for two toddlers while studying at the Apostolic Bible Institute. After graduating, Marjorie briefly returned to Jonesport, narrowly avoiding being killed by the 1953 Worcester Tornado - she missed a connection that would have placed her on a bus that was hit, and her name was announced among the deceased over the radio - in what she always saw as an act of divine providence. Freshly ordained, on fire with the Gospel, and never one to wait, at 21 Marjorie left Maine for Manchester, New Hampshire, where she founded and led an independent congregation of the United Pentecostal Church. A gifted musician who could play by ear, she quickly taught herself the piano, the guitar, and the accordion to lead the worship in praise. She also began preaching and corresponding with an evangelical circuit throughout New England, which is how, in 1956, she met the Reverend Gorham K. Gould, a handsome disabled Navy veteran, fellow fiery 'Maine-iac,' and equally independently minded maverick minister, at a church in Woodland, Maine; within weeks, he proposed by postcard, and she immediately accepted. Gorham and Marjorie were married on January 26th, 1957 ('it was a blizzard that day, and it's been a blizzard ever since!'), and they were utterly inseparable ever after. They quickly had three children - Joy, Stephen, and David - moving their family from Maine, to South Boston, and finally to Everett, where they would live in a small house down the Lynde on Bow Street, near Mike's Donuts, across from what used to be Everett Station, for almost 50 years. She never learned to drive; with Gorham, they became enthusiastic and popular fixtures of the MBTA, known for their enthusiastic socializing and proselytizing by means of public transit. In Everett, Marjorie worked at Schrafft's candy factory, individually hand-wrapping chocolates and lollipops (and occasionally popping them into her mouth). She later moved on to process dental insurance claims at Prudential and Blue Cross, where she prided herself on her work ethic and mastery of bureaucratic detail; she became known as the person to whom difficult cases were brought for quick and accurate resolution. She managed the family's modest home and finances with equal attention and care. On weekends, Gorham and Marjorie, with the three kids in tow, pastored countless congregations around Boston, holding fast to their vows and true to their love. They became an evangelical dream team: Gorham would thunder passionately from the pulpit, and Marjorie would follow with uplifting hymns of praise. Their 24 post-retirement winters at the Florida Holiness Campgrounds in Lakeland, Florida, were filled with Bible study and meals with friends. After selling their Everett home to the Encore Casino, they moved first into the Montaje Apartments in Somerville, then lived with family during the pandemic, before Marjorie spent four years as a popular and lively resident in an assisted living facility in Nashua, where she played the piano in the common room after most meals to cheers for encore from other tenants. Like Gorham, Marjorie preached as the sun shone: constantly, brightly, and agreeably. The Light of the Gospel illuminated her way of life, particularly in its commandment to love all as Jesus did. Egalitarian in both creed and deed, Marjorie never treated anyone differently on the basis of their standing in society, how they looked, whom they loved, or anything else. She was a particularly outspoken advocate for the love and acceptance of the LGBTQ+ community, often standing to testify at Bible studies and Church services to the belief that God created us all as we were, and who were we to question His judgment? In her later years, she wore a sequined sparkly LOVE pin in her favorite hat as a statement, a commitment, an exhortation, and an inspiration to all who saw her. Marjorie was a devoted mother-in-law to Joy's husband Dan and Stephen's wife Marie, and doted on her six grandsons - Christopher, Alex, Eric, Thomas, Joshua, and Matthew - who all knew her as 'Nana.' She spoiled her grandchildren to the point of physical pain, wringing her hands and wailing "oh please, finish your ice cream for Nana or I'll be sad" as they struggled with sundaes the size of their skulls. On weekends, she took them (by train) to the Museum of Science and the Franklin Park Zoo and the New England Aquarium, and played them gospel songs to sing along with on her vintage upright organ. When her grandchildren inevitably left to go home by car, she would run down the block after them, waving while they yelled 'run Nana run!' out the windows. She remained a lifelong partisan of Team Santa; when a concerned young Christopher asked how Santa would be able to visit the chimneyless house in Everett, she showed him, in great confidence, the place where she had placed a key for Mr. Claus. Marjorie was also a benevolent, behatted matriarch to her many grandkids-by-proxy, especially among Dan and Marie's families, for whom "Nana and Papa" were holiday fixtures and supplemental grandparents. She was especially delighted to participate in nuptials for Christopher (and Stephanie) and Eric (and Justine). Marjorie brought light and warmth and tenderness and humor to everyone she met. She loved to tell stories, particularly if they were funny; to call a person or situation 'comical' was a high compliment, frequently bestowed. When teased, she threw her head back and laughed like a muppet, and then would tease right back. She loved car rides and animals Wheel of Fortune and Squishmallows and McDonalds; toward the end of her life, she was on a first-name basis with many of the drive-thru attendants at any of the Golden Arches in the greater Nashua area, kibbitzing with them from the shotgun seat of whichever family member was taking her for a ride that day. Both physically and psychologically, Marjorie was indomitable up until the very end. Evidently unfazed by strokes and falls in the last year of her life, she was an incorrigible imp in medical settings, wearing straw 'cowgirl' hats in her hospital bed, challenging physical therapists to grip strength competitions, and breaking out into dead runs in hospital corridors as panicked nurses clutched their heads and shouted for her to slow down and use her walker ('impulsive!' would be written on clinical whiteboards as a warning). Her decades of clean living - she never smoked or drank - carrying grocery bags, Christmas gifts, and a pretty purple purse that weighed as much as an anvil had left her heart and body strong to a degree that shocked doctors. Over time, her memory declined, but not her spiritedness - until Gorham passed in March 2023. From that point on, she would still laugh with loved ones as they did their favorite activities, but seemed sadder, and would speak often of missing him. In late June 2025, she suffered two sudden, successive heart attacks; after the second one, she told her daughter Joy that Gorham had come to visit last night, and said he would see her soon. As it became clear that she was finally ready to see him too, the family focused on keeping her comfortable. Her last meal was her favorite: a McChicken with fries and a Diet Coke ('delicious, nutritious, and makes you feel ambitious!'). As she lay at rest in hospice, her family gathered to talk to her, to joke with her, to sing hymns to her, with her occasionally raising one hand, eyes closed, in praise. Long after she lost the ability to speak, she would still tightly grab the hand of whomever was holding hers. On the evening of July 3rd, the hospice chaplain and her family read her the Lord's Prayer, and a hospice choir sang her 'The Old Rugged Cross' and 'Amazing Grace;' she passed, peacefully, within the hour, running once more to see Gorham and God together in Heaven's bright city. Marjorie was preceded on her trip to that beautiful shore by her beloved husband of 66 years Gorham, her parents Earl and Juanita, her younger siblings Nadine, Beatrice, and Bert, and her youngest son David, as well as many other family and friends, particularly Richard Peasley, her lifelong friend and correspondent from Jonesport. On this side of heaven, her memory runs through the minds and hearts of her sister-in-law Sandra White, whom she loved as her own sister; her children Joy and Stephen, their spouses, their children, and their children's families; David's children and their families, including her infant great-granddaughter Thea, whom she never met but delighted in nonetheless; various cousins, nieces and nephews; everyone at Nashua Crossings and the Holiness Campground; and countless more who loved her."
