IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Marian V.
Shoemaker
April 11, 1921 – April 8, 2024
Marian V. Shoemaker, age 102, of Feasterville, PA passed away peacefully surrounded by her loving family on Monday, April 8, 2024 in her home. She was just a few days shy of her 103rd birthday. She was a beloved wife, mother, grandmom and great grandmom (Grammy).
Born and raised in Thornhurst, PA to the late Charles and Elizabeth (Dietrich) McCarty, Marian moved to her aunt's house in Hatboro, PA in her teenage years and graduated from Upper Southampton High School in 1939. She worked as a bookkeeper, and was a wonderful homemaker. She married the love of her life, the late Ellwood Nathan Shoemaker on October 9, 1943.
A farm girl at heart, Marian enjoyed gardening, especially flowers, and feeding the birds but she was also talented in wood crafts and loved to spend time painting them. She was an avid reader and loved to do puzzles. Marian enjoyed traveling, but loved spending time with her family most of all.
Daughter of the late Charles and Elizabeth (Dietrich) McCarty, wife of the late Ellwood Nathan Shoemaker and mother in law of the late Patricia (Rowan) Shoemaker. Marian is survived by her loving children, Robert Shoemaker, Glenn and Linda (Jenson) Shoemaker and Janet Shoemaker; her cherished grandchildren, Amy Oxley, and Arin Clark; beloved great grandchildren, Maegan Oxley, and Ian Oxley.
