Private funeral services will be held at St. James Lutheran Church in Holland with burial to follow at St. James Lutheran Cemetery.  There will be no public visitation; however, the family would treasure their friend’s prayers and cards of remembrance.  Nass & Son Funeral Home in Huntingburg has been entrusted with the arrangements.

The family would like to extend their appreciation to the staff at St. Charles Assisted Living where Marian lived during her final years.  Memorials may be made to St. James Lutheran Church or the Lincoln Boyhood Amphitheater.
