Beloved mother, devoted daughter, and beautiful friend. Marie was a radiant, charismatic soul, illuminated every room she walked into, and left a smile on every face she befriended. Marie was innovative, a true entrepreneur, and had a brilliant mind. She was dedicated to providing the best life possible to her mother and her daughter, and honored God for every breath and every day of life He gave her. Marie was a strong woman of faith, unshakable and unwavering. She praised God all the days of her life and thanked Him greatly for the blessings that He poured into her life. The love Marie had for her daughter was like no other; a devoted, proud mama who loved her daughter deeply. Her daughter describes her mother, Marie, as fierce yet gentle, bold yet soft, radiant and kind, elegant yet humble, thoughtful and selfless, resilient and strong, beautiful and like no other. “My mother is irreplaceable. A true force to be reckoned with. She has a heart of gold and her soul is blessed and loved immensely by our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I will never forget how deeply and fiercely she loved me. She made me feel so loved all the days of my life, and I will carry her love with me for the rest of my days until we meet again in Heaven.”
Marie is survived by her 25 year old daughter, Christian Marie Helen Marquardt.
