Salt Lake stage, playing leading roles in numerous plays such as "Twelfth
Night," The Little Foxes," "Othello," and "Saint Joan." She was active in the
community, including as Chairman of the Mother's March on Polio, and as a
member of the Junior League. She and Grant enjoyed Salt Lake society,
politics, the arts, and their friends. In 1959 the Midgleys moved to
Washington, D.C., where they resided until 1986. Marsha continued her
community activities there, with the Washington Symphony, United Nations
Association, and University of Utah Alumni Association. She received the
University of Utah Emeritus Alumni Association's Merit of Honor Award in 1981.

field trips for inner city youth. She also worked on the campaigns of

visitors the sights of Washington and gained a reputation as master of the
quick but complete D.C. tour. In 1974, Marsha began 10 years of employment for
the National 4-H Council as a Washington Program Specialist. She often
commented that working with the young people and college students she met at
4-H immeasurably enriched her life. When she retired in 1984, 4-H honored her
for "significant contributions enriching the learning experience of more than
200,000 4-H'ers."  Marsha and Grant moved back to Salt Lake in 1986. They
continued to enjoy the arts, politics, and their many friends. Marsha again
took up community activities, serving on the Utah Museum of Fine Arts Board,
Salt Lake City Arts Council, College of Fine Arts Board, City and County
Building Conservancy Board, and the University Health Sciences Department's
Educational Resource Development Council. She was deeply involved in the
renovation of Kingsbury Hall, where she had performed so often and in memory
of her parents' long association with the Hall. Marsha loved her family and
friends dearly. Grant passed away just last December but she is survived by
her brother John Lyman Ballif III of Provo, daughters Marty McCune of Tucson,
