Marion was a strong woman; strong in faith, family, and love. She loved antiques and art, which was the motivation for opening her store, The Drummer Boy Antiques and Gifts in Tequesta. She also enjoyed playing bridge, doing needlepoint, painting, both oils and china, singing in the church choir, and entertaining.
Marion was a member of the First Presbyterian Church of Tequesta and attended Crossnore Presbyterian Church in NC.
Marion was predeceased by her husbands, John M. Kern, Jr. and John C. Alexander, as well as her son-in-law, Donald R. Hires and daughter-in-law, Grace Alexander. She will be dearly missed by her children, Ronald J. Alexander, Cheryl Alexander Hires, and Dr. John C. Alexander, Jr., her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, as well as her caregivers.
A memorial service will be held at First Presbyterian Church, Tequesta, on Saturday, May 30, 2015, at 2 PM. In lieu of flowers, please consider a memorial gift to Treasure Coast Hospice or First Presbyterian Church, Tequesta.
