Marion Jean

Marion Jean Loy also known as Jeanie. She loved people and loved to talk on the phone. In her spare time she made all kinds of arts and crafts. Her children and grandchildren meant the world to her and would tell anybody of their latest accomplishment. You could say she was a proud granny. She enjoyed sitting on the porch drinking her morning coffee while watching the birds and animals. She took pride in the simple things in life including her roses she grew in her yard. She enjoyed cookouts and fishing at the lake with family and friends; and as she would call it, " cutting up" in between with her spontaneous jokes. She always had a story to tell that would brighten their day. She never met a stranger and had a compassionate heart that would reach out to anyone in need. She gave all she could if it meant her last dollar. All of the people that surrounded her life would call her Momma because of her natural mothering nature. Her friends all knew that they could count on her being at church every Sunday with a joyful smile. Fellow church friends were family in her heart. She impacted more peoples lives than will ever be known. Jeanie was always the center of our family and will be greatly missed.
