Margery was baptized at the Exira Christian Church in Exira and graduated from Exira schools in 1948 then taught in rural schools. On November 14, 1952, she was united in marriage to Marion "Spike" Walker at the Exira Christian Church, and this union was blessed with four children: John, William, Sarah and Joseph. Spike and Margery farmed the Walter Green farm, which they later purchased. They grew crops and raised hogs and cattle and milked cows. In 2003, Spike and Margery moved into Exira. Spike passed away in 2016, and Margery moved to the Care Center in 2017. Margery was a stay-at-home mom for most of her life, although she did work at the Exira Community Schools as a kindergarten assistant in the late 1960s. She also worked for many years as a substitute teacher. She was a member of the Merry Meeters neighborhood club and the local Saturday night card club. Margery was very active in the Exira Christian Church. She was the junior high choir director and later the adult choir director for more than 30 years. She helped with Sunday school and church programs during this time as well. She was on the Quasquicentennial Committee in 1981-82, which was instrumental in planning all activities and raising money for the Exira Rec Center. She enjoyed being in the kitchen band during this time and later was active in the Exira Community Band for many years. Music played a large role in Margery’s life. She loved to sing and she was asked to sing at several showers, weddings and funerals through the years. As well as raising her family and cooking three meals a day, she loved being outdoors helping with the chores, tending a large vegetable and flower garden and raising her horses. She was an avid reader. Among her favorite authors were Laura Ingalls Wilder and Margery Allingham.
