She is survived by her loving husband of 63 years, John; her daughter, Deborah Hartshorn of Southington, CT; her son, John Featherston Jr. of Fort Wayne, IN and daughter and son-in-law, Donna-Marie and Terry Henry of Boyton Beach, FL. Her extended family includes five grandchildren, Brian and his wife Lisa, Kaitlin, Kyle, Lucas and Emily and two great grandchildren, Matthew and Anna. She so loved to hear all the many escapades that her grandchildren experienced and to see all the pictures that they sent to her on her iPad.
Marie loved working as a nurse for 14 years in Kings Park Psychiatric Hospital in New York. When she retired 24 years ago, she and Jack decided to move to sunny Florida. She enjoyed playing weekly mahjongg with her friends, scrapbooking with her daughter, Donna and, of course, all kinds of shopping with her partner in crime, Jack.
