Marcia loved her family and especially her grandchildren.  They were the light of her life. Marcia loved attending anything that her grandchildren were apart of whether it be sporting events, musicals, school awards or just simply taking them to do something special.  Marcia never met a Stranger and would brighten any room she walked into.   Marcia loved to ride on the back of her Goldwing with JJ and eventually learned to ride herself and took trips after he passed.  She was a member of GWRRA Goldwing Club. She loved to travel with her friends. She played cards and line danced on a weekly basis. She loved attending to her plants.  Marcia always had a side hustle whether it was selling Premier Jewelry or most recently Rodan and Fields.  She was passionate about anything she was involved in and met many good friends along the way.
