She is survived by one daughter, Shirley A. Slogel Smith, and blessed with four granddaughters: Wendy McCall, Kathy (Dave) Funk, Lori Barnett and Sherri Madonna. Fourteen great-grandchildren and eleven great-great-grandchildren. Two sisters: Marie Garnett and Myrl Hershey, both of Lebanon County. Numerous nieces and nephews.

Marion was a feisty, petite, classy and independent lady who kept a neat and tidy apartment until her failing eyesight, which required assisted living at the age of 99.
She became a resident of St. Anne's in June of 2021 and got to know a lot of caregivers and tablemates in the dining room. Her memory was excellent and before her eyesight problems, she enjoyed word-search, cooking, cleaning, shopping and running with her sisters.
