MARJORIE (KINSEY) CLANDFIELD, our beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and aunt, passed away peacefully August 18, 2012, in Kalispell, Montana in the loving presence of family. Marjorie (Marj) was born to Rollo William and Sarah Lavern Kinsey in Lethbridge, Alberta. Marj was raised in a home of farming and ranching in Raymond, Alberta with which she carried with her many fond memories. Following high school graduation, Marj moved to Calgary, Alberta where she met and married her best friend Michael (Mike) Arthur Clandfield. They were married in Raymond on May 25, 1957, and then resided in Calgary, AB. Marj and Mike later moved to Lethbridge, Grassy Lake, and Medicine Hat, Alberta where they owned and shared several successful businesses together throughout the years. In 1984, they relocated to Bigfork, Montana where they owned and operated Korner Kitchen/Kings Lounge until their retirement in 2007. Marj was known for her excellent homemade cooking which was the cornerstone of their business. Marj and Mike made the business a family endeavor, which involved all their children and grandchildren over the years. Marj enjoyed her many customers and friends she met throughout ownership and was a dedicated perfectionist in both her personal life and business. Following retirement in 2007, Marj and Mike spent much time with their family and friends and frequently had the opportunity to travel. Her husband will miss her dearly and family with whom she shared a close bond with each and every member.
