Clarissa Lillian was born on October 19, 1903, in Cream, Minnesota to Ira and Flora (Blaisdell) Southwick. She was a 1925 graduate of Pemberton High School, and went on to attend Mankato Normal College. Clarissa was united in marriage on June 9, 1930, to Robert Marx. Robert's career with Scott Stores, a division of Ben Franklin, led the family to Chicago. Following her husband's death in 1986, Clarissa remained in Highland Park until 1992. At that time Clarissa moved to an assisted living in Robbinsdale, Minnesota, and in 1994 to Lake Shore Inn Nursing Home in Waseca, Minnesota.
She is survived by her sister Marjorie Andrews of Pemberton; by her sister-in-law Pearl Southwick of Pemberton; by many nieces and nephews and other relatives.
