Marjorie Nett

PHARR, TEXAS — Marjorie Jean Weingart Gould Nett, 88, passed away on March 27, 2023, in Pharr, Texas. 

Margie was born July 19, 1934, to Henry and Minnie Weingart, the fourth of 15 children. Marge had fond memories of growing up in the Ninepipes area. She graduated high school in 1952 in Mission, married Ben Gould, and raised a daughter, Rita. 

Marge worked as secretary in Mission and Charlo schools. In 1982, Marge married Gene Nett, living in Greybull, Wyoming, where Gene taught and Marge provided daycare. After retirement, Marge and Gene became snowbirds. Marge and Gene settled in Harlingen, Texas, where Marge kept busy crocheting, crafting, and gardening, before entering assisted living. Grandma was generous with hugs, kisses, and smiles. She loved swimming and sunbathing, whether at Flathead Lake or South Padre. 

Marjorie is survived by her husband, Gene; daughter, Rita; eight grandchildren; 12 great- grandchildren, 12 brothers and sisters, and the Nolan family. 

Marge was preceded in death by her parents; brother, Ralph; and sister, Ida.
