Born in Newark, Marion lived in West Orange for 35 years, before retiring to Manahawkin in 1984. Marion worked at Orbach’s in Newark and New York City and was also a part-time bookkeeper in the family business for many years. However, her greatest joy was being a homemaker. She cherished her home and family, loved cooking, baking and sewing and was an avid reader. She also enjoyed spending dad’s money too! She was a wonderful mother and best friend. We love you, mom, and we miss you. Fly with the butterflies and live with the angels.
