Marie enjoyed spending time with friends and family and could always be found at one of her grandkids’ sporting events. She loved The Lord, chocolate long johns from The Rolling Pin, a good deal, summer days at the pool, and red lipstick. She had an unmatched wit and the ability to make everyone who entered her home feel welcomed and loved. Her favorite days were those spent with her family, all under one roof, enjoying a meal that she had prepared.
