She was active in her children's lives, volunteering in community causes, leading Girl Scouts, and coaching softball. In the course of her life, she lived in many states. Her last 16 years were spent in Titusville, FL with her husband. Upon Ben's death, and with her health failing, Marion moved to Stacy in March 2015 to live with her daughter Maryann. Private family services will be held. Memorials may be made to Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure. Her Journey's Just Begun: Don't think of her as gone away. Her journey has just begun, life holds so many facets, this earth is only one. Just think of her as resting from the sorrows and the tears in a place of warmth and comfort where there are no days and years. Think how she must be wishing that we could know today how nothing but our sadness can really pass away. And think of her as living in the hearts of those she touched. For nothing loved is ever lost and she was loved so much. By: Ellen Brenneman
