Margaret Ann Clement, a beloved mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, passed away peacefully on April 8, 2026, at the age of 84. Born on September 17, 1941, in Muenster, Texas, Marge was the daughter of the late JP and Hazel (Otto) Flusche.

She was predeceased by her parents, husband, brothers Herbie, Bill, and Don Flusche, brother-in-laws Julius Hermes and Tom Trachta, sister-in-law Dorma Flusche, and daughter-in-laws Cathy Martin and Carolyn Martin.
