Marie volunteered at St Joan of Arc Parish and School in any capacity that was needed.  She was a leader in several scouting troops, was an avid “walker”, talented seamstress, and loved to dance. Her favorite hobby was celebrating everything and anything (even Tuesdays at Troegs) and being with her children and grandchildren. She adored her “gang”!

She will be dearly missed by her 28 grandchildren and 24 great-grandchildren.

In addition to her parents and husband, she was preceded in death by granddaughter, Jill Golembewski; brother, Walter Boyle and sister, Nancy Boyle Thompson and son in law, Michael Sharkey.
A visitation will be held Thursday, February 8, 2018, from 5:30 – 7:30 PM in the Hoover Funeral Homes & Crematory, Inc., 88 Lucy Ave. Hershey. 

Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Friday, February 9, 2018 at 11AM in St. Joan of Arc Catholic Church, 359 West Areba Ave., Hershey. Interment will follow in the Hershey Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, the family prefers memorial contributions be made in Marie's name to either: Heart of the Parish Fund, c/o St. Joan of Arc Church 359 W.
