Marcia was a loving wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother. Marcia  and Brother were married 49 years at the time of his death in 2008. She provided  her family with a warm and loving home. Dinner was always served promptly at  5:30 p.m. and it was a given that holidays would be hosted by Marcia. Many family  vacations were spent at the family “log home” in Clairville Canada. Marcia held  many fond memories visiting with her Canadian family on those trips. She was a  role model for her children and was always there for them. She doted on her  grandchildren and great grandchildren who were her greatest joy. Marcia’s  favorite hobby was crocheting with her afghans being her specialty.  

Marcia was a woman of faith. When her children were young she was a member of the Morgairs and helped with the annual bazar. In the early 2000’s she found her new home at the Presbyterian Church in Burlington where she made many  friendships and continued to be an active member of the congregation. Marcia  was a kind, soft spoken woman who never had a bad word to say about anyone.  Simply put, she was the Matriarch of the Gedick family. Her devotion to her family will never be forgotten. Marcia leaves her family with a lifetime of wonderful memories filled with love and happiness.
