Marguerite Antoinette (Garaicotchea) Compton Obituary Passed in peace at the age of 86, Marguerite was born in Chico, California and married her high school sweet heart Donald Compton, in 1948 in Durham, CA. They moved to Washington state in the early 1960s and farmed in both Stanwood and Ephrata before retiring in the Spokane area. Marguerite bore years of physical challenges but never lost her sense of humor and optimistic spirit. She was a beloved friend to many of her caregivers.
