Maggie L. Pinder

Maggie L. Pinder "Babylue" October 18, 1950 - September 4, 2025 With hearts full of love and memories that will forever shine bright, we celebrate the extraordinary life of Maggie L. Pinder, affectionately known as "Babylue" to all who knew and cherished her. At 74, she peacefully transitioned on September 4, 2025, leaving behind a legacy of unwavering faith, boundless love, and service to others that touched countless lives. Born on October 18, 1950, in Orangeburg, South Carolina, to John E. Jamison and Remall Williams (John Henry Williams), Maggie's journey began in the heart of the South, where she was raised with strong values and deep roots. Her life was a beautiful tapestry woven through three beloved communities—from her childhood in Orangeburg, to her formative years in Chester, Pennsylvania, and finally settling in South Jersey, where she made her lasting home. A Love That Endured In 1983, Maggie married her beloved husband, Victor, beginning a loving partnership that would span over four decades. Their marriage was a testament to enduring love, mutual respect, and shared faith. Together, they built a home filled with warmth, laughter, and the kind of deep companionship that grows stronger with each passing year. Victor was her anchor, her partner in all of life's adventures, and together they created a legacy of love that blessed everyone around them. A Heart for Service Maggie's professional life was a testament to her calling to serve others with compassion and dedication. As a Certified Nursing Assistant and Dietary Supervisor at Martin's Run, she brought healing and nourishment to those in her care. Her work extended beyond traditional healthcare—she served her community at election polls, worked at Auto Car, and provided devoted home aid services, including the honor of caring for Ms. Bagley, sister of the legendary Coretta Scott King. Each role she embraced reflected her deep commitment to uplifting others. A Woman of Faith Faith was the cornerstone of Maggie's life, and her spiritual journey was one of continuous growth and service. She graduated from Faith Connection Christian Academy in Philadelphia in June 2020, a testament to her lifelong dedication to learning and spiritual development. First Pentecostal Holy Church became her second home, where she served with distinction in numerous capacities: President of Sheperd’s Care, devoted member of the Missionary, and cherished Choir member. As a graduate of the School of Ministry, she shared her wisdom and love of God with the next generation, assisted in teaching Vacation Bible School under the leadership of the late Bishop Samuel W. Ellis and nurturing young hearts in faith. The Joy of Living Those who knew "Babylue" will forever remember her infectious spirit and zest for life. She found pure joy in gathering her girlfriends for lively game nights filled with laughter and friendly competition. Her kitchen was the heart of her home, where she masterfully prepared soul food that nourished both body and spirit, creating meals that brought families together and made every gathering feel like a celebration. Maggie's phone was never far from her hand—she had a gift for staying connected with family and friends, spreading love, encouragement, and prayer through every conversation. Her home was always open, her table always set for one more, and her heart always ready to host family gatherings that created memories to last lifetimes. Perhaps most beautifully, Maggie lived a life of prayer, consistently lifting up any and everyone who crossed her path. Her faith wasn't just personal; it was active, reaching out to touch the lives of others through church outreach and a constant spirit of intercession. A Legacy of Love Maggie L. Pinder—"Babylue"—leaves behind a legacy that cannot be measured in years, but in the countless lives she touched, the prayers she offered, the meals she prepared with love, the laughter she shared, and the unwavering faith she demonstrated every day of her remarkable 74 years. While we mourn the loss of her physical presence, we celebrate a life beautifully lived in service to God, family, and community. Her memory will continue to inspire all who were blessed to know her, and her spirit will live on in the hearts of those she loved so deeply. Maggie is preceded in death by her husband, Victor A.
