Marsha was a loving and devoted wife to her husband Harry. They celebrated 55 years of marriage this past June. They had the fairytale marriage everyone dreams about.

She had three grandchildren: Morgynn (Isaac) Schweigert, Dylan Olson, and Justyn Olson; and one great-grandson Carter Schweigert. She was also a loving sister to Beverly (Joe) Yarbenitz; John (Linda) Olson, Mike (Bonnie) Olson, and Sue (Steve) Koontz.

Though Marsha was petite in size, her presence was huge. She battled Parkinson's Disease for over 40 years, but didn't let it slow her down. She kept active, playing the piano and bingo, painting, making quilts, and other crafts. Even though certain tasks were hard for her, she never gave up, and she was filled with tenacity.

As a grade school teacher, and Sunday school teacher, Marsha was able to mold the lives of young children. It was her passion to bring out the best in everyone.

Memorials in Marsha's memory may be made to Easterseals or the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

Final arrangements are entrusted with Quiram-Peasley Funeral Home of Atlanta.
