Marie Loved being an entrepreneur, (always having many irons in the fire), but she especially loved being in business with her husband Jerry working with breeding and showing their paint quarter horses and breeding and raising mini horses at their homestead. Her love for horses started as a young teenager with her cousins in Mesquite, NV.
Marie loved all critters as she called them and would always sign off on greeting cards “Love Jerry, Marie and the Critters”.
Marie loved her family and extended family and did not want to leave so soon. She was a fighter to the end. The massive stroke she had while in the care of the Rehab/Care Facility & hospital in Pocatello, ID finally took the fight she made to a whole other level. We will miss her dearly.

“What I remember best about Marie was her boisterous laugh and her easy smile. Truth is, even when you couldn’t see her, you could hear the smile in her voice.
When her and Jerry had the Motel (Lava Ranch Inn) in Lava Hot Springs, they had a Friends and Family party every year after Labor Day. It was always epic. Great food, music and conversation. Well worth the drive to get there and spend a couple of days.
Maire was always picking up strays, both people and critters. She gave them a place to stay and never asked much in return. She was a warm loving and giving person and I will miss her always.”
