Marguerite Chester

The eye is a better pupil and more willing than the ear For to see the good in action is what everybody needs. For I may misunderstand you in the high advice you give. But there is no misunderstanding how you act and how you live. With gladness and rejoicing they shall be led. They shall enter into the King's palace. A homemaker and a resident of Zachary, she died at 2:30 p.m. Friday, Dec. 14, 2007, at Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center. She was 77 and a native of Trinity, Texas.
