Marion I. Kansier, age 94, of Eastpointe, went home to be with our Lord on January 31st, 2019.

Marion lived her life almost on the same block. She was born in Erin Township which incorporated into the Village of Halfway, then the City of East Detroit and now Eastpointe. She was a successful career woman as an office manager in Downtown Detroit for 17 years until becoming a homemaker when her daughter was born. She was always very involved in her church. Marion was very kind at all times, and very wise, yet had a keen wit.
Above all, Marion was a faithful woman, entirely devoted to loving her husband, daughter, and her three granddaughters, in whom she took incredible pride and joy.
