Marianne was a strong, independent woman whose kindness, encouragement, and acceptance touched the lives of all who knew her. Known for her quick wit, warm smile, and generous spirit, she always put the needs of others before her own. Marianne had a remarkable ability to make people feel welcomed, valued, and loved.
A devoted animal lover, Marianne had a special place in her heart for dogs and found great joy in caring for them. She also enjoyed spending time in her garden, nurturing flowers and plants with the same care she gave to those around her. Marianne lived an active life and loved swimming, running marathons, baton twirling, and gymnastics. Her energy, determination, and enthusiasm for life were an inspiration to many.
Above all, Marianne cherished her family. She leaves behind her beloved children, Erin Boddington and William Boddington; her cherished standard poodles, Dreams and Promise; and her grand-pup, Limoncello. She is also survived by her loving siblings, Diane (Frank) Reilly, Susan (Mike) Rogish, Tom (Debbie) Moons, and Glenn (Barb) Moons, along with many extended family members and dear friends who will miss her greatly.
Marianne’s legacy of kindness, compassion, and unwavering support for others will continue to live on in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know her. Her smile, laughter, and loving spirit will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
