Marion Summers

Suddenly but peacefully we lost our dearest mother, grandmother and sister in her 90th year. Most supportive wife of Dr. John Summers for 61 years. Loving and caring mother to Peter (Elizabeth) of Hamilton, David (Sharlene) of Brooklin, Bill (Donna) of Guelph, Karen (Stephen Osborne) of West Guilford and Darius of Eramosa. Grandma to Jason, Lindsay, Ian and Heather. She is survived by her brother Brad (Sandra) of Mississauga and brother-in-law Malcolm of Barrie as well as many nephews, nieces and cousins and their families.

Marion was born in the village of Baden where she grew up on a dairy farm, the daughter of Wilfred and Edna Schneller. Completing school in Baden and at Kitchener-Waterloo Collegiate, Marion was a graduate of the 1954 KW Nursing class. Marion’s talents were many including oil painting, piano, crafts and gardening; all which she enjoyed into her 90th year. Her over 60 paintings will especially be a reminder of her for generations to come. A resident of Puslinch Township for 54 years, she with John, made friends from around the world but especially at Redstone Lake, Haliburton and most recently at Arbor Trails.

The family extends its sincerest appreciation to the staff at Hospice Wellington.
