60881. Margie Louise Lloyd

The Daily Ardmoreite (Ardmore, OK)
November 25, 2011

OKLAHOMA CITY - Margie Louise Ayers (Lloyd) was born July 26, 1941, to William Webster Lloyd and Clara Lee Lloyd in Beggs, Oklahoma. She was the youngest of eight children. Margie grew up and graduated high school in Beggs, then moved to Oklahoma City shortly after graduation. She lived at the YWCA in downtown Oklahoma City and worked at First National Bank in the accounting department. It was there that she met, dated and eventually married James Ayers on June 23, 1961.

After her youngest child was born, Margie began working as a substitute teacher for Moore Public Schools then found her calling as an Indian Education Tutor for the schools. She spent the remainder of her career helping children with academic needs by providing them with an environment of love, learning and fun. Even up until the day of her death, she had return visits from children she had tutored even 10-15 years ago. She played such an instrumental role in educating young kids. She loved music, sewing, reading and spending time with her family. She was famous among her kids for creating games for family get-togethers and making sure there was enough macaroni-and-cheese to go around.

Her heart was always that of a caregiver. Everything she did was about helping someone else, even when she became ill. The last six months of her life was spent surrounded by those she loved. She was able to let others take care of her. Although the illness and chemotherapy treatments were difficult to endure, she found comfort in knowing that she and her husband were cared for and that she didn't have to worry about doing anything but feeling better. She had the wonderful opportunity to visit her family and best friend before she became too ill to travel. The trips down memory lane are something she talked about with great enjoyment. She smiled all the way home. The last days of her life were filled with her family at her side. She would even comment that she was ready for God to take her home.

After a courageous battle with cancer, Margie passed away on Sunday, November 20, 2011. She is survived by her husband, James Ayers Sr. of the home; four children, James Ayers Jr., Brian Ayers with wife, Dorothy; Ellen Walker, and Kevin Ayers with wife, Becky. She has four grandchildren: Brandy Jones with husband, Anthony, Brittany Ayers, Jonathon Walker with wife, Sarah, Keegan Walker and Makenzie Ayers. Her great-grandchildren are Anthony Jones Jr., Emilee Jones, Brooklin Ayers, Isabella Walker, Brighton Ayers, Haiden Walker, Abigail Walker, and Greyson Luna.


James Edwin Ayers Sr.

Rest Haven Oklahoma

James Edwin Ayers, Sr. was born to Hubert and Goldie Ayers on December 18, 1937 in Norton Bend, Oklahoma. He grew up mostly in Ardmore with his parents and his sister, Cleo. After high school, he moved to Oklahoma City where he worked at the First National Bank where he met his future wife Margie. He served in the Marine Corp Reserves and after an honorable discharge, continued to work for the First Data Management Corporation (FDMC) at the First National Bank downtown OKC. He continued to work for 25 years until his first stroke at age 55.

He is welcomed to his spiritual home to rejoin his loving parents, his beautiful wife Margie Louise, and their daughter Janet Diane who preceded him in death.

His four living children survive him: James Jr., Brian, Ellen, and Kevin. He was a loving grandfather to Brandy, Brittany, Jonathon Keegan, Makenzie, Evelyn and Owen as well as being a great-grandfather to Brooklin, Brighton, Grayson, Isabella, Haiden, Abigail, Ainsley, and Adelyn. He is also survived by his sister Cleo Chaffin, husband Ken and their children: Cheryl Bowhay and family, Christy Holden and family, Laurie Gray and family.

If there could be only one word you could say to describe James, it would be strength. He was strong as a young athlete, strong as a Marine, strong as a father, strong while recovering from many major life-threatening illnesses and more importantly, he remained strong in his love for God. He involved himself in the church by leading worship in song, being a big part of Royal Rangers, taking the family to many revivals, and his kid's sport activities.

He loved visits from people and although he never talked much, he enjoyed being around social people. While staying in assisted living homes, he loved winning at bingo. Not just playing, but winning. If he didn't win, he would sulk and not go the next round. But he'd soon be back. Although he loved winning at bingo, he loved giving away the prizes he won to others even more. Yes, they were just candy bars or bottles of hand sanitizer or a roll of toilet paper, but he liked to share his 'winnings'. It made him feel good to share.

During the last several years of his life, he lived with his eldest son, James, Jr. James, Sr., would spend his days assembling puzzles (probably 300-400 total), painting, reading his bible and watching religious programs (unless OU was playing football). He loved to sit outside in the sun. Sometimes James Jr. would give him a job like breaking up sticks that had fallen from trees. He really liked to do jobs.

Speaking of jobs: When James got an idea in his head, he wanted it and he wouldn't stop asking until he got it. You may be wondering why this tricycle is here. James wanted a bicycle. He thought he could ride it around to find work. After searching and searching, Ellen located one and brought it home to him. You wouldn't think being paralyzed on one side would allow him to master this, but he did. (video)

I think the tricycle represents his strength and his desire to keep going no matter the struggles you've been dealt. We can look at that tricycle and think it's an easy thing to conquer: a bike with huge training wheels. You can't really fall off of it. But because of his circumstances, he had to have the faith and strength to get on it and move forward. He never once thought he could fall off of it. He approached it like he had no limitations. Either that or he wanted to make Ellen crazy.

Even to the end of his life, he continued to keep his faith in God strong. He spent his final days at his daughter's house with his family where he died peacefully.
