Obituary: Margery Shanks - Aspen Times

She attended Ursuline College where she earned a Fine Arts Degree. She married Robert Shanks and had 3 children. She and Bob lived in many places; Pittsburgh, PA, Salem, IN, Cincinnati, OH, Hudson, OH, and Toledo, OH. While Marge enjoyed sports, antiques, and having fun, her foremost interest was art. She was the proud owner of The Duncan Gallery in Hudson, OH for 27 years. Her goal was to showcase local artists as well as provide quality artwork of all kinds to everyone. She promoted local artists which inspired national attention and international recognition as far away as the US Embassy in Oslo, Norway. Her customers respected her expertise and her friendship and many would spend hours with her learning about art and chatting about life. She showed us the light, showered us with love, and put others before herself. There’s such a thing as a man’s man, but she was a woman’s woman who inspired so many young women to believe in themselves, to act with independence, and to reject traditional stereotypes. Marge will be greatly missed by her 3 children ; Robbie, Dorian, and Carey as well as surviving brothers along with their families. Services are being planned for Toledo, Ohio and Aspen, Colorado in April and August respectively. In lieu of flowers for the family or for Marge, please consider a donation to your local arts chamber, school, or museum in Marge’s name. https://www.aspentimes.com/obituaries/obituary-margery-shanks/

Back to Gallery As a fourth-generation florist, Hannah Tiffin has a deep appreciation and passion for working with flowers – whether it’s making bouquet arrangements, pressing and drying flowers, or even painting them on canvas. Growing up as the daughter of a Naval man and amidst a family of successful entrepreneurs, the Midland native has lived elsewhere and explored other careers.
