Margaret Marcak
Lola Margaret Godsy Marcak, 84, departed from this world at her home in West Plains, Missouri, for her heavenly home Friday, May 24, 2024.
Margaret was born August 5, 1939 in Fremont, Missouri, to Ira Howard Godsy, Sr. and Opal O’dell Godsy. Margaret was a loving mother and step-mother who enjoyed spending time with her family and friends. She was an avid gardener and enjoyed quilting, crocheting and baking pies. Margaret was a Christian and a member of the Church of the Nazarene.
She is survived by her son, Ed Coates and wife, Lisa, Mountain View, Arkansas, daughter, Cheryl Coates Harrison and husband, Tim, Waynesville, Missouri, son, Don Coates and wife, Sheena, South Fork, Missouri, son, Tommy Marcak and wife, Angela, West Plains; step-sons, Bennie Marcak and Chris Marcak, both of West Plains; brothers, David Godsy, Ira Godsy, Jr., Gordon Godsy and Bob Godsy; sister, Norma Jean Godsy Roy; along with 17 grandchildren; 30 great-grandchildren; and numerous nieces, nephews and friends that will all miss her.
She was preceded in death by her second husband, George Marcak, Sr., infant son, Melbourn Coates, step-daughter, Aletta Marcak Hiltibran, sister Dorothy Godsy Bailey and her parents.
There are no formal arrangements made at this time as Margaret has selflessly donated her body to research. The family will have a graveside memorial at a later date. In lieu of flowers and other like memorials, the family requests that donations be made to a breast cancer or brain cancer research organization of your choice.

To the Marack family,
My deepest sympathy to you and your family.She was my landlord only for a short time, we shared many things one the love of flowers and I gained a lot of knowledge and personal strength by watching her. You gave me a listening ear and a chance to start again. May the Lord wrap you in his loving arms and give you rest. My sincere condolences

She was a wonderful women whom I worked with. Amazing with what she would do, fixing things in her rental houses and putting up tons of vegetables. I am thankful for having known her. Bless the family.
