Marie fought a great battle with stage IV breast cancer for five years and five months. She was diagnosed on October 21, 2014. Marie never let her cancer get the best of her, but instead used it as a means to go out into the world as a servant of the Lord, share her story, and help others fighting the fight.
A memorial service will be held to celebrate the joyous life Marie lived as she walked in faith. The service will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, March 21, 2020 at Caughman-Harman Funeral Home, Lexington Chapel, 503 N. Lake Dr., Lexington, SC 20972.
