Margaret "Margie" Hanks Todd was born October 7, 1925 in Tulsa, Oklahoma to Grayce Lee (Williams) Hanks and Frank Robert Hanks. At 98 years young, she was the last survivor of the family's six children. Margie passed away peacefully on October 16, 2023 with family surrounding her. She was married to the love of her life, Robert V. Todd (Bob), for 63 years and they had two daughters; six grandchildren and six great grandchildren whom they treasured and adored. Daughter, Nancy Shahadi and husband, George Anna Brooks (granddaughter), husband, Reid Brooks and their sons, Margie's great grandsons, Brady and Rory Alexis Shahadi Goodman (granddaughter), husband, Anthony & their daughter, Margie's great granddaughter, Marta Amy Jenson Hinchey (granddaughter), husband, Stephen and their daughter, Margie's great granddaughter, Harlowe Daughter, Peggy Cluck and husband, Tom Ryan Pogue (grandson), and his son's, Margie's great grandsons, Declan & Bryce. Margaret Pogue (granddaughter) Spencer Pogue (grandson) and his wife, Joanna Rob Cluck (grandson) Margie's grandchildren lovingly referred to her as "Grandma Hops", a nickname that extended in use to so many that knew and loved her. She was also a beloved "Aunt Margie" to her nieces and nephews. To know Margie was to love her. She was amiable, generous and funny; known for her quick wit and lighthearted, friendly demeanor. She was always chatting with people she might meet in a store or a restaurant and had dozens of wonderful longtime friends. Margie was a graduate of Central High School, class of 1943. The majority of her career was spent working as a secretary for several executives at Amoco Corporation. She was always a stickler for proper spelling and grammar, and truly enjoyed her work, colleagues, and bosses. Through the years of working and raising children and into retirement, Margie & Bob spent much of their time with family and dear friends at Grand Lake. The two were hosts to hundreds over the decades who fondly recall Margie's delicious cooking and the Todd's warm, seemingly effortless, hospitality. Margie was an avid sports fan and especially enjoyed attending Oklahoma State football games and wrestling matches with friends. She loved all types of social activities, continuing to play bridge right up to her death. Margie touched countless lives during her 98 years on earth. Though she was loved and respected by so many, she was humble and thoughtful always. We will miss her laughter, sparkling eyes and hugs forever and are so thankful for the times we had with her.
