Jeanne Marx
Jeanne L. Marx Passed away peacefully on February 23, 2011, surrounded by her loving family. Jeanne was born on October 17, 1915, in Oxnard, California and graduated from Scripps College in 1936, and attended graduate school studying French Literature at U.C. Berkeley. Jeanne married Daniel Marx, Jr. of San Francisco in 1939 and together they lived in Hanover, New Hampshire for more than 30 years, where Dan was a Professor of Economics at Dartmouth College and where they raised their four children. When Dan retired in 1970, they moved to Menlo Park, California. Jeanne was a devoted wife and mother and remained active in volunteer activities into her 90's. Among the many organizations to which Jeanne contributed many volunteer hours in Hanover were the Girl Scouts of America, the Boy Scouts of America, the New Hampshire Association for the Blind, for which she transcribed schoolbooks into Braille, and the League of Women Voters. In Menlo Park, Jeanne was a volunteer for Bay Window, Allied Arts Guild, and the Charter Auxiliary to the Lucille Salter Packard Children's Hospital at Stanford. Jeanne was an active member of the Charter Auxiliary for more than 30 years. Jeanne enjoyed her many loyal friends and encouraged and enjoyed large family gatherings. She was beloved by her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Jeanne is survived by her children, Constance Angove of Nevada City, Daniel H. Marx of Needham, Mass., Nancy Ellsworth of Menlo Park, and Richard Marx of Penngrove. She is also survived by seven grandsons, Jonathan Renner, Dirk Renner, Mark Ellsworth, Daniel Ellsworth, Joshua Marx, Julian Marx and Alder Marx; five great grandchildren, Nicholas Renner, Erik Renner, Ella Renner, Reese Renner, and Opal Marx; and her brother, Joseph E. Levy of Berkeley. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Lucille Packard Foundation for Children's Health, 400 Hamilton Ave., Ste 340, Palo Alto, CA 94301, or to a charity of your choice. Friends are invited to join the family in a celebration of Jeanne's life from 3 to 5 pm on March 11, 2011, at Allied Arts Guild, 75 Arbor Road at Cambridge Avenue, Menlo Park.
