She worked in the Gloversville School System as a secretary for several years, and later at Eastman Kodak Company in ' Rochester, as a secretary for several years. She married Rand Wamer 24 August 1957 at North Main Street Methodist Church, Gloversville, where they both sang in the choir. They moved to the Rochester, New York area in the fall of 1957. Marge was a highly respected and loved wife, mother, surrogate mother, grandmother, great grandmother, aunt and great aunt, and was most revered by her husband, children, grandchildren, great grandson, nieces, and nephews.

Marge was a 58-year member of Asbury First United Methodist Church in Rochester, where she had been active in many activities over the years until recently; including Asbury Storehouse, Asbury Dining & Caring Center, Altar Guild, United Methodist Women Church Women United, Children's Ministry, Family Council, Double Ring Class, Fellowship Class, and Fifty Plus Fellowship Class. Marge volunteered at the Asbury Storehouse nearly 45 years, holding many positions, and also co-chairing their annual Basement Sale fund raiser for many years. Marge volunteered at the Asbury Dining & Caring Center for nearly 20 years, serving meals to the homeless. She also helped Asbury with refugee resettlement for Carnbodians, Laotians; and Vietnamese immigrants for years. She was active in philanthropy on many fronts. Marge was active for many years with the Rochester Chapter of National Railway Historical Society and the Genesee Valley Antique Car Society; helping both organizations for many years with different activities and events. She had played girl's basketball at Gloversville High School, was an avid Buffalo Bills football fan, bowled with the Two Timers League in Fairport, and enjoyed the Fairport Red Hat Ladies group.
