Marlene C. Sexton

Marlene graduated from Wheelwright High School in 1959. In 1963, she married her husband, Henry. Marlene was a homemaker and a loving mother. She enjoyed traveling, seeing the ocean, dancing, shopping, wearing jewelry, and eating chocolate and sweets. She also enjoyed watching old movies, especially westerns, and home shopping channels. She was the life of every party and never knew a stranger. Above all, she loved spending time with her family.
