Predeceased by her brother, Oscar Feldpusch (Edna); brother-in-law, George (Bessie); sisters-in-law, Sherrie (Don) Moore and Doris Tilt. Marie was born in Elmira. Her interest in people has been the focus of her life. She trained as a nurse in Stratford and Montreal and worked at various hospitals. She was one of the first X-ray technicians and a respected supervisor. In 1945 she married John, returning to her farming roots and supporting her husband faithfully in all his endeavours. Marie was a life member of the Doon Presbyterian Church Ladies Aid. She was also a life-long member of the New Dundee Women's Institute, achieving the position of District President. With a passion for history, Marie gave generously of her time and talents to Doon Heritage Crossroads and volunteered for several other organizations - South Waterloo Agricultural Society, Freeport Sanitorium, Pennsylvania Folklore Society, and the Waterloo Historical Society. Marie was recognized as a Woman of Achievement by the Zonta Club of Kitchener-Waterloo in 1988. Marie was a constant in her family's life - always there, caring, quiet and strong, with a helping hand, listening ear, sustaining meal and solid devotion.
