Marie lived her life in service, praise, and glory to our Lord.  Her church family was at St. Mary’s in Neillsville, where she used to her talents to teach CCD for many years.

Marie was a homemaker and lifelong resident of Neillsville with many strong ties to the community.  Her strong faith was a lifelong guide that was a beacon that carried her through the good times, as well as the bad times.  Her strong will and quick wit and keen sense of humor will be missed by all who were fortunate enough to be in her company.
