Marge

Mittelman

Marjorie “Marge” Mittleman, 95, passed away peacefully in Clovis, California, on September 16, 2026.

Born on November 22, 1930, Marge spent the last 50 years of her life in Fresno County, where she built a life defined by faith, service, family, and a deep love for the people around her.

Marge earned her Associate’s Degree from Fullerton Community College and went on to build a remarkable 40-year career with Bank of America. She retired as an Associate Vice President of Operations, a testament to her dedication, professionalism, and commitment throughout her long career.

Beyond her professional life, Marge found great purpose in serving others. She was actively involved with Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) in Fresno and Madera Counties for many years, where she advocated for children who needed someone in their corner. Her relationships with the children she worked with went far beyond her time as a CASA volunteer. She formed lifelong friendships with many of the children and their families, leaving a lasting impact on those fortunate enough to know her.

Marge was a member of Saints Rest Baptist Church in Fresno for many years. She had a beautiful singing voice and loved to praise the Lord through song. Her faith was an important part of who she was, and her love for others was evident in the way she lived her life.

Marge had a particular appreciation for the simple things that brought her joy. She loved horses, which she considered magnificent and beautiful creatures. She enjoyed a good trip to Table Mountain Casino, a Diet Dr. Pepper, and, perhaps most importantly, her sister’s lemon cake.

Above all, Marge loved fiercely and fully. She gave her heart generously to her family, her friends, the children she advocated for, and the many people whose lives she touched throughout her 95 years. She will be remembered for the love she gave, the relationships she cherished, her beautiful voice, her strong faith, and the lasting difference she made in the lives of others.

Marge was preceded in death by her parents and her sisters. She is survived by her nieces and nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews, and great-greats as well, in addition to the many friends and loved ones who were blessed to know her.

In accordance with Marge’s wishes, no services were held; she is interred at Belmont Memorial Park in Fresno. Those wishing to honor her memory may consider making a donation to Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) of Fresno and Madera Counties, an organization that held a special place in her heart.
