Obituary of Marie Adeline Raney
On Tuesday, September 17, 2019, Marie Adeline O'Brien Raney of Orlando, Florida—loving wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother—passed into the hands of the Lord at the age of 82. She was survived by her husband Walter, daughter AnnMarie, son-in-law Al, and son Thomas. She also left behind her grandson Kyle, daughter-in-law Amie, two granddaughters Harley and Raven and five great grandchildren Nate, Noah, Liam, Lukas, and Matthew. Marie was born September 10, 1937 to Mary Elizabeth and Joseph O’Brien and raised in Rockville Center, New York with older brother Joseph, and two older sisters Katherine and Betty. She was a devout Catholic and a parishioner of Saints Peter and Paul Catholic church. She was an avid bowler and a girl scout troop leader. She enjoyed traveling the world over, and she especially loved all locations with a Disney theme park. When she wasn't taking in exotic locales, one would often find her knitting and sewing. Indeed, Marie would knit Christmas stockings for every new member of our family and for our friends. She was also a skilled stuffed animal doctor with her needle and thread. She met her husband, of 57 years, Walter, in 1954. They lived in Lanoka Harbor, New Jersey for 28 years before retiring to their home in Orlando, Florida, near their best friends Robert and Cleora Johnson. Never one to be off her feet for too long, Marie always took care of her dogs and cats, as well as numerous rescue cats and a family of raccoons. She also made sure to tend her garden. She absolutely adored her roses. Still, no one can deny that her greatest joy was loving and supporting her family. Though forever in our hearts, she will be deeply missed.
