Marion T. Siwek, 87, of the Town of Waterford, received her angel wings Oct. 2, 2022, with her loving family by her side.
Marion was born in Milwaukee on May 16, 1935. She married Anthony Siwek on Oct. 2, 1954. The couple had four children. Marion was a housewife and homemaker. She was a funny and sassy woman who worried a lot. In almost every phone call she would ask “How’s your health?” “How’s your job going?” and “How are the pets doing?” If you were driving in a car with Marion, there was absolutely no doubt that at some point she would shout out “And my gosh, have you seen the gas prices?!!” even though she never drove a car.
Marion was the grandchildren’s babysitter, the keeper of the allowance, and candy bars, and only she could give the okay that would send grandpa over to deliver them. She was the queen of owl collectibles and enjoyed latch hooking and crocheting. She was also the maker of an unforgettable split pea and ham soup, and she was behind all the magic that made Christmas Eve so special for the family. She enjoyed the company of her loving family, and she was one of a kind. Marion will forever live on in our hearts. She will be soooo missed.
Marion is survived by four children, Debbie Derksen, Mark Siwek, Dave Siwek, and Deanna (Rick) Lenz; grandchildren, Rebecca, Matthew (Christa), Alexandrea (Matt Hill), Joshua, Justin, Jessica, Jordan, Jerid, and Jennifer; great-grandchildren, Makenna, Taura, Nekolos, Ariana, Jelissa and Trinity. She was preceded in death by her parents, and her husband Anthony.
Private memorial services will be held in November with inurnment at Rochester Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers memorials are suggested to the American Cancer Society.
