Marjorie Edwards

January 11, 1939 — November 14, 2021

Mrs. Marjorie Sue Edwards of Campbellsville was born on January 11, 1939 in Louisville to the late Jessie and Ardella (Schmidt) Provenozano Purvis. She departed this life on Sunday, November 14, 2021 at the Norton Pavilion in Louisville, being 82 years, 10 months, and 3 days of age. She had made a profession of faith in Christ and was a member of First Church of God. She was a retiree of the Cmapbellsville Independent School District, having worked primarily as a bus moniter, and a former employee of Fruit of the Loom. A very proud wife, mother, and grandmother, she also had a very strong faith in God - and loved her church family almost as much as her own.

Her husband: Donald Edwards,

A daughter: Vickie Knifley and husband Rodney of Campbellsville,

A brother: Gerald Purvis and wife Margie of Buffalo,

Six grandchildren: Shannon Hughes and husband Stuart, DeAnna Reliford and husband Jason, Jessica Thomas, Justin Farmer, Amanda Jessie, and Brittany Mann and companion Jeremy Sprowles,

Ten great-grandchildren: Caleb Hughes, Logan Reliford, Isaac Underwood, Zachery Johnson, Ethan Knifley, Landon Knifley, Lillian Mann, Gunner Mann, Regan Jessie, and Brylee Sprowles,

A daughter-in-law: Trina Farmer of Columbia,

And a host of other family and friends.

She was also preceded in death by three children: Karen Sue Farmer, Sharon Kaye Lawson, and Robert Albert Farmer; and a grandson: Joshua Knifley.
