She was born on May 7, 1948 in Richfield Springs, the daughter of Linnie Marie Davenport.
Marie worked at several nursing homes in the Norwich area for many years. Being the kind and caring person that she was, she was a nurse at home as well. She would take care of the children when they were sick and also took care of injuries. Marie also took in a troubled young girl, Virginia Randall, and taught her how to walk and talk and how to care for herself.
She really loved the simple things in life. Marie was very proud of her flower garden and was also very good cook, something she passed onto her daughter and brother. Marie adored the time she spent with her companion, Jim. They enjoying going out to eat and shopping together, and both loved to travel, something that she had never done before meeting Jim, most recently visiting family in Florida. Marie was also a huge animal lover, especially her two cats.
