While attending a USO dance, she met her future husband, Thomas J. Rosato. He predeceased her in 2002. After living in Westchester for many years, they retired to Stuart, Florida for the last 16 years of their married life. Marion loved doing craft work, was an avid reader and was a very active member of the Women’s Guild at Holy Redeemer Church near their home in Florida.

In 2005, Marion moved to Stony Point, N.Y. to be closer to family. She was a very loving and caring wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. The greatest gifts she passed onto her family were her deep faith, her unconditional love of family and friends, and her great sense of humor! Everyone who knew her enjoyed her quick wit and admired her fiercely independent spirit.
