On September 22, 2025, Marie left this earthly realm to spend eternity with her Lord and Saviour. After spending several years wrestling with Alzheimer's and dementia she was freed from the burdens that stole her presence.

In many ways she has been missed for several years. It is now that by faith we can rejoice for her that she has entered into His presence for eternity and has been made perfect to be with Him. As those of us in the Christian community walk this earth by faith, we say that we long for this moment, however the reality of the finality can sometimes leave us in sadness, when a loved one actually crosses over. Yes, we are sad that she left us, however we rejoice that God in His will and His time has taken her home. Marie joined Calvary Baptist Church in Woodland in the early 90's and remained there actively involved until she moved to Arizona in 2006 to be with her family.

She is survived by her daughter Debra (Steve) McGraw, son Ralph Fowler, granddaughter Jennifer (Vic) Revel and their families.
