She graduated from Woodbury High School in 1952, where she excelled academically and lettered in field hockey, basketball, and tennis. She received her bachelors degree in Elementary Education from Rutgers University (1956) and her masters degree in Romance Languages and Literatures from Penn State University (1958).
In her professional life, Marlene was an educator. She taught for Penn State University, the University of Pennsylvania, Middlebury College, West Deptford School District and Aura Elementary School in Elk Township. She is a lifetime member of the NJEA and retired from teaching in 1998.
Marlene went by many names, including Mom, Mom-Mom, Bootsie and Aunt Booie. She enjoyed her pets, card games with her brothers and sisters and was an avid reader. She loved cooking and hosting significant family events at her home where everyone was welcome. In her younger days, Marlene enjoyed spending summers in Atlantic City with her family. She liked to go to the casinos with her sisters and had a very competitive spirit when it came to playing cards, bean bag, and dice. One of her most redeeming qualities was her distinctive and infectious laugh which her loved ones often heard.
Marlenes children, grandchildren, and extended family were the pride and joy of her life. The legacy of her kind spirit, passion for sports and games, love of reading, and zest for life will live on through them.
