Marie was a long time member of St. Patrick’s Catholic Church. She volunteered countless hours and was always proud of her Country Store at the church picnics. Marie worked in the cafeteria at Union Carbide for many years, where she grew strong friendships with others. After retirement, Marie’s favorite hobby was doing her embroidery work. Spending time with her family, playing a friendly game of cards or dominoes at her dining room table was always a good time. The family looked forward to holiday gatherings. “Mamaw” always talked about her grandchildren being so special. Our Mom was so sweet and kind to others, she greeted everyone with a smile and had the biggest heart.

In addition to her parents, Mrs. Boedeker was preceded in death by her husband, Emmett Boedeker, her son Carlos Boedeker, son Glen Boedeker & her brother, Wilbert “Peanut” Roznovsky.
Pallbearers will be the 7 Grandchildren. Sheila Kahanek, Melissa Ammerman, Jennifer Heibel, Justin Boedeker, Matthew Shelton, Jaclyn Hartl, Clayton Janis
