Margie Howard

Mary Margaret “Margie” Galford Howard, age 69, of Williamstown, KY, passed away on July 30, 2025. Born on December 7, 1955, in Dayton, Ohio, Margie was the beloved daughter of the late William “Bill” and Willa Jean Doyle Galford.

Margie lived life with fierce independence and a creative spirit. She found joy in crocheting, crafting, reading tarot cards, and spending time with her dogs. Her faith as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses was a guiding light throughout her life.

She was preceded in death by her first husband, Terry Noel, with whom she shared her greatest gift—her daughter—and by her second husband, Ronald Howard.

Margie is lovingly remembered by her daughter, Angela Noel Beaty of Berry, KY; her grandchildren, Johnathon Beaty of Lexington, KY, Christopher Beaty of Richmond, KY, and Heather Beaty of Dry Ridge, KY; and her six great-grandchildren: Brayden Brazier, Serenity Brazier, Raelynn Brazier, Athena Kitchen, Jaxxson Beaty, and Christopher Beaty.

A celebration of Margie’s life will be held at a later date, at the convenience of the family.

Her legacy of love, creativity, and strength will live on in the hearts of those who knew her.
