by Tiffany Elliott

Longtime Amityville resident Marjorie Viemeister died Dec. 12, 2007 at White Bear Lake, Minnesota where she moved two months ago to be closer to one of her sons. She was 92 years old and was called a vibrant, much-loved member of her community by her children.

"My mom was very social and always active, even at 92" said her daughter, Daryl who said her mom had been politically active in the civil rights movement and loved to spend time with friends and family.

According to her children, she never stopped fighting for a better, more peaceful world and will always be remembered for her compassion, intelligence and activism. She was a longtime active member of the South Nassau Unitarian Universalist Church in Freeport and spent much of her time working there in the thrift store.

Her grandchildren:Alyssa Siegel and Katie Otto also survive her as do her her great grandchild, Jayden and her nieces: Karen and Lynn and her longtime companion, Paul Scire and his family. She was predeceased by her husband, Willard.

A private cremation was held at the Mueller Mortuary of White Bear Lake, Minnesota. A memorial service will be held on Long Island at a later date.
