Margie D. Rehurek was born on September 2, 1922  near Scotland, South Dakota to William and Pauline (Jacober) Hamberger.  On March 4, 1946, she was united in marriage to her best friend and loving lifetime companion, Joseph Rehurek, Jr. They raised their family on their farm northeast of Tyndall, where Margie worked hard tending to the chickens and milking the cows. No matter how hard she worked, though, she always had renewed energy if there was an opportunity to dress up and go dancing. A woman of quiet strength and ageless beauty, she will be remembered for her warm smile and her giving nature. She was truly gifted at comforting and easing the pain of others, especially her young daughter who suffered a terminal illness. She always acknowledged the pain, played it down, and found some good to replace the pain. Margie loved many of the simple pleasures in her life - tending to the huge array of flowers and plants in her garden, cooking and baking her special dishes, working crossword puzzles in between naps in her favorite chair, visiting with friends and especially sharing a dish of ice cream with Joe before bed. She was a member of the United Methodist Church of Tyndall, the United Methodist Women, and the Tyndall Good Samaritan Guild, where she fixed hair for the “old gals” for over 21 years. Margie died on Saturday, September 13, 2008 at St. Michael’s Hospital in Tyndall at the age of 86 years and 11 days.
Margie’s memory will be cherished by her husband, Joe Rehurek, Jr. of Tyndall; two sons: Larry Rehurek of Kaylor, South Dakota and Dave (Sheryl) Rehurek of Yankton, South Dakota; three grandchildren: Amanda "Tootsie" Rehurek, Andrew Rehurek and Zachary Rehurek; and a brother, Gary Hamberger of Kaylor, South Dakota.
She was preceded in death by her daughter, Colleen Rehurek, in 1987, her parents, William and Pauline Hamberger, and two brothers, Raymond Hamberger and Leo Hamberger.
