Grafton, Va. – Marsha A. Burgess, age 65, proud resident of York County passed away on 4 Apr 2023, the same day as our former president’s indictment.
Marsha was born in Norfolk, VA on May 12, 1957 and was the daughter of the late Randall Norsworthy and the late Jolene Babineau. She graduated from Norfolk Christian in 1975 and was an accomplished pianist. She moved to the United Kingdom where she met and married Robert J. Burgess in Oxfordshire, England in 1984.
