Obituary

Margie Gehm (née Walter), born March 1, 1930, in St. Louis, entered into rest on December 10, 2025 at the age of 95. She was the cherished daughter of Christine Pauline Walter (née Sprenger) and Albert Louis Walter.

Margie was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 48 years, Eugene Glennon Gehm. Their enduring partnership was a testament to love, faith, and committment shared over a lifetime. She is also reunited in Christ with her sisters, Elinor and Verna, and her brothers, Albert Jr., Bill, and Glen, all of whom she held close in her heart.

Devoted mother to Steven (LuAnn) Gehm, Jimmy (Rachel) Gehm, and David (Stacy) Gehm; proud grandmother of Chandler, Kelbie, Mike, Matt, Julia, Elijah, and Olivia; blessed great-grandmother of Hewitt, McCoy, and Nolan; and loving sister to her dear brother Dale Walter. Margie touched the lives of numerous nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews, friends, and customers who will forever cherish her warmth, humor, prayers, and generous spirit.

Margie's unwavering love for Christ, combined with her deep commitment to the health and well-being of those around her, guided her daily life. She devoted herself to making positive, lasting changes, and her legacy lives on in the countless lives she touched through her ministries of faith and wellness.

Her signature phrases, "I love you, but Jesus loves you more!" and "Psalm 34:8", graced the many cards, newsletters, books, bookmarks, and other heartfelt tokens she shared. Each one reflected her joyful, unapologetic love of the Lord.

May she rest in peace and rise in glory.
