Margie Evans, Nannie to all, passed from her Earthly body to join our Lord and Savior on April 26, 2021 at 8:58 AM. \r\n\r\nMarjorie Faye Council was born on February 15, 1940 in Tishomingo, Oklahoma to Jim and Beulah Council. At 3 days old, her family moved to Kerrville to join other family members. She attended school at Tivy and there she met the love of her life, Scottie Evans. They were married for 54 years and started a large and loving family before his passing on January 5, 2010. This devastated her and the family. \r\n\r\nHer work career included being a clerk in the gift wrapping department at Schreiners, a nurses aid at the Kerrville State Hospital, a cashier at Joes Handy Stop Grocery Store, a framer at Hill Country Frames & Things, a receptionist at Grimes Funeral Home, and also worked at DaVita Dialysis. \r\n\r\nMargie loved to travel to Oklahoma to the Council Reunions, and to Windover, Durant, and Eagle Pass for the casinos. A trip to see the Holy Land and another with her grandkids, after their graduation, to travel and see the United States were some of her fondest memories. She, her sister Cree, and sister-in-law Mary Jane are known as the Golden Girls to many. \r\n\r\nSome very important parts of Margies life included family gatherings, cooking big holiday meals, Thursday night supper with the ladies, Friday night booray card games at her home, Fellowship with her loved ones, and lets not forget a good margarita. The highlight of her week was always her trip to get her hair done by her niece, Debbie Jacobs. \r\n\r\nMargie is survived by her four sons, James Red Evans of Kerrville, Thomas Tommy Evans and Julie of Brownwood, Joel Jody Evans and Kelly of New Braunfels, and Timothy Tim Evans of Bartlett; her sister, Christine Cree Flores of Kerrville; and sisters-in-law, Mary Jane Council and Barbara Council, both of Kerrville. \r\n\r\nThe joys of her life were her 8 grandchildren, Brandon Evans, Tamara Evans, Brittney Boyd, Amanda Morgan, TJ Evans, Taelyr Evans, Tyla Evans, and Quintan Evans. Her 8 great-grandchildren, Ashlyn, Colby, Maggie, Meredith, Bree, Olivia, Conner, and new addition baby Keaton, and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends that she made along her lifetime of adventures were also very loved by her. \r\n\r\nShe was reunited in heaven with her parents, Jim and Beulah Council; husband, Lawrence Scott Evans; brothers, Dewayne and Donald Butch Council; and great-grandson, Oakley Evans. \r\n\r\nDue to Covid Restrictions, the visitation will be held at Margies home for those that wish to pay their respects on Thursday and Friday, April 29th and 30th from 1:00-7:00. There will be a public funeral service at 10:30 am on Saturday May 1, 2021 at the Chapel at Grimes Funeral Home. Burial will follow at Garden of Memories. \r\n\r\nThose that wish to make memorial donations, may do so in Margies honor to St. Jude Childrens Hospital.
