She was united in marriage to John Revoy on Sept. 4, 1939. They were married for 63 years until his death in 2002. They were blessed with four daughters, Marie, Pat, Barbara (deceased), and Tess.

After the birth of their last daughter, Marion began her career at S.S. Kresge, Jupiter and K-mart, retiring after 28 years.

Marion was a member of the Altar Society at Holy Trinity Catholic Church, serving as treasurer for two years. She was a member of the First Catholic Slovak Branch 17 and was secretary for 20 years.

Our mom led a full life. She and Dad visited Florida for 26 years. They loved dancing at Bingo's in Wakefield on Saturday nights. She has now moved to her heavenly home, meeting up with loved ones that have gone before her.

Thank you to the staff of Gogebic Medical Care Facility who cared for mom with love and respect. Thank you to all that visited her. We are going to miss mom and her wisdom but know that she is at peace with family and friends, especially dad and daughter, Barbara Fricke. Her kind and loving spirit was felt by everyone her life touched.

A celebration of life will be held at Our Lady of Peace Catholic Church on Saturday, Sept. 11, at 11 a.m., preceded by a visitation from 10 a.m. until the time of the Mass. A luncheon will follow at the Elk and Hound Country Club.
