Marian had a full childhood, growing up with her brother and sisters. She was a graduate of Jac-Cen-Del High School Class of 1970. Upon completion of high school, she received her nursing home administration license from Ball State.
She was a caregiver in every aspect, from her family to the patients at the nursing home, she gave unselfishly. She would go many times without, just to ensure others had what they needed.
