MARILYN R. WEBER of HADLEY, MASS, February 26, 1928 – November 18, 2017
Hadley, Marilyn R. Weber, 89, of Hadley, MA passed peacefully in her sleep on Saturday, November 18, 2017 at Elaine Manor. Her family had gathered around her in the days before her passing.
Born in Schenectady, NY in 1928, she was the daughter of the late Earl Havens and the late Dorothy (Gallup) Havens. She was predeceased by a sister, Betty Barr. She married the first love of her life, August W. Weber, in 1949. He predeceased her in 1958. They had four sons, Todd, Rodney, Dana, and August W. Weber III, all of whom survive.
She is also survived by eight grandchildren and 5.5 great grandchildren.
She was married to her second love, Robert C. Weber, in 2006. He predeceased her in 2017.
As a single mom she was employed by the Niskayuna NY school district to be able to be home after school to keep tabs on her rambunctious brood during their formative years. It didn’t always work…
She loved California, Mexico, Cape Cod, Old Orchard Beach, her dream home in Hadley, dancing and cooking, but most of all her and the family reunions in Mariaville, NY. She will be deeply, deeply missed by all of us.
The family would like to thank mom’s caregivers, both at home and at Elaine. It wasn’t always easy but the care you gave and the love you showed are appreciated more than you can ever know.
A celebration of Marilyn’s life will take place on Wednesday, December 6, 2017 at 1:00pm at the Douglass Funeral Service, 87 N Pleasant St. Amherst, MA. A remembrance reception will follow from 2:30-5:00pm at the American Legion in Hadley.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Marilyn’s name to a local hospice or charity of your choice.
