Obituary
Marjorie L. Pope (formerly Hamann), age 94, passed away on May 3, 2023. Marjorie was born on June 21, 1928, in Milan, Michigan, to Nelle (Flegel) and Arthur Taylor. She attended Michigan State University where she met Albert Hamann. They got married in 1950 and moved to Madison, Wisconsin. She was a good mother and raised her family using her excellent cooking and sewing skills. Later, she was employed as a secretary. After a divorce, she married William (Bill) Pope on June 5, 1982. After their marriage, they resided at Marbella Condominiums and were both active on Marbella’s Board of Directors. They wrote a quarterly newsletter for several years and participated in many social activities. They thoroughly enjoyed their summer home near St. Germain, Wisconsin. After retirement, they spent 13 winters in Lakeland, Florida where they enjoyed the community life at Twin Palms Mobile Home Park. They shared nearly 40 years of love and togetherness. Marjorie was a long-time member of Good Shepherd Lutheran Church. She was very social and thoroughly enjoyed her friends. Marj also enjoyed genealogy, keeping up with current events, and was a life-long avid reader.
Marjorie is survived by her children Barbara (Robert) Halverson, William (Barbara) Hamann, Rex (Keitha) Hamann, and Kristin (Paul) Esswein; grandchildren Sara (Paul) Shingler, Angie (Corey) Brandl, David Hamann, and Lisa (Kevin) Swiatczak, siblings David (Kay) Taylor and Richard (Judy) Taylor.

Madison Achievers Toastmasters Club
2023-05-17 18:30 - 20:00 | Madison Room 11/The Sheep Fold
Are you feeling nervous? Does your normal confidence drain away at the thought of speaking? We offer support and encouragement in a nonjudgmental place to practice. Are you an experienced speaker but wonder if you can improve? We all strive to do better; word choice, effective pauses, and concise presentations are just some of the aspects we develop. As you gain confidence, you might even challenge yourself to participate in a contest. The real goal is to compete against yourself and improve with practice.
The Toastmasters educational system, Pathways, is an exciting, flexible and interactive way to develop your skills and help others in your club develop theirs. Pathways includes online training, videos and interactive tests. There are hands-on, real world projects available, including more than 25 elective projects. These projects are designed to work in conjunction with a speech and include: training for activities such as attending a networking event, working for a volunteer organization, designing and leading a committee or managing an event, creating a podcast or blog, and gaining storytelling and humor skills.
Preview the first Pathways project, the Icebreaker speech, here and learn more about the Pathways program here. Each project consists of the training details for at least one speech, but might also include additional learning components for a variety of speaking, management and leadership skills.
