Marianne Lynn Litzo was born on March 26, 1957 the youngest of five children to Irvin Fred and Martha Carolyn Petersen Litzo.
She was married to William Paul (Bill) Haggerty Jr. Marianne was survived by her husband Bill, her mother Martha Litzo, sisters Patricia Konst(Terry), Peggy Litzo, Karen Talbott, and brother Mike Litzo, five nephews, two nieces, three great nieces, two Step-Daughters Summer and Amber Haggerty and her two dogs Sheba and FooChi. Marianne was preceded in death by her father Irvin Litzo and one nephew Scott Konst.
From Karen:
Marianne- a little curly haired girl.

I remember when she burnt her bottom on the stove at Bonesteel? and was left with the tattoo of the curlicues from the stove on her rear.

Dunny- Pardner and Dusty (the horses), making mud pies and the decorations of the yellow flowers and torn leaves or grass- sometimes we threw in some smushed berries for a little extra color.

Newport- Arfie, the bicycle with the basket full of stuffed animals, ducks in the swimming pool, cats-how many were there?

This is the first time I realized how much Marianne loved animals. It carried thru for her whole life. Many times we had "discussions" about her 4 legged kids as opposed to my 2 legged kids. All of her animals were as important to her as my kids and grandkids are to me.

Valentine-the little sister. Pattie and Terry and the wedding when all of us girls had the same type of dress-and mom made them. Elliott, the Allard boys, Aunt Martha, Aunt Kathy and Uncle Pete and all the cousins

Aurora-Wow……………….most of our lives were spent here. I had graduated and was out of the house while she was in high school. We spent a lot of time together though. This is when we were running with the tow truck gang. Paul and Jerry were the main ones. Others like Hughes Towing guys (Jim Gette, Snowball, Earl, Roger, Kenny, Benny and of course Big Steve)

High School- Challenges growing up and the wrong crowd. What would have happened without mom around?

Christmas-1977 Marianne was in Texas. Since I was the one with little kids-Christmas Eve was at my house. Stacie was a little over a month old and Steve was 3. Mom, Dad and all of us were at my house. Marianne had called and told me she was going to surprise everyone and be home for Christmas from Texas- and DON"T tell anybody. I think that was the year she called and pretended she was Santa Claus and talked to Steve on the phone. She even made reindeer prints on my car on Christmas Eve. She finally made it home through the snow storm and rang the doorbell. I was jumping up and down and screaming as I opened the door-I think both Mom and Dad were crying.

Cars-Her little blue Cobra and the white Datsun 200SX

So many things bring back memories of her. Driving someplace, eating something, clothes-if she liked something I was wearing or she was wearing something I liked; it wasn't unusual for us to give it to the other one.

Village Inn days and all of the gang. All the crazy things we used to do with all of them.

The hard times, the happy times, the sad times.

And Bill-the love of her life, her man, her everything. How lucky they found each other and had the few years together that they did.

Things that were so Marianne-

Flippin you off
Hugging the kids
Cowboy up
Blondie
Indian Culture
Family
Laughing
Melancholy after a few beverages
Opinions

And as mom said to me a while ago if anything summed up Marianne's life in a few words it is

Live Fast, Love Hard Die Young and Leave a Beautiful Memory

We love and miss you
