Marie was a lifelong member of St. Paul's Ev. Lutheran Church in Winneconne. Upon retirement Marie and Larry enjoyed traveling cross country from Florida to Washington visiting many relatives along the way. They particularly enjoyed their trips to Jamaica.

Along with her parents, Marie was also preceded in death by her husband Lawrence; one sister, Bernice Trapp; one brother, Alvin Reinke; and a son-in-law, Robert Cole.
A visitation for family and friends will be on Saturday, February 7, 2015, from 9:00 to 11:00 a.m. at St. Paul's Ev. Lutheran Church, 8 S. Fourth St. Winneconne.
