Watson -North Funeral Home is honored to be of service and ministry to the family of Mary Reba Marion age 76, of Estill Springs, Tennessee. Mrs. Marion passed from this life on September 26, 2021, while at Vanderbilt Medical Center in Nashville, Tennessee. She worked for many years alongside her husband in the furniture repair business as well as farming. You could find her doing many things from driving a school bus in Lincoln County to gardening and growing beautiful flowers. No one ever left her house without being offered something to eat or a glass of tea. She was free spirited, loved life and enjoyed laughing and making others feel loved. Reba had a way about her that once you met her, you were “adopted.” She made such a mark on her friends lives that life will just never be the same without her here. She was a member of the First Baptist Church in Decherd as well as the Red Hat Society. She leaves to mourn her passing and cherish her memories, her husband of 60 years, Charlie Marion; son, Dwayne Marion and his wife Cookie of Cowan; sister, Twila Kay Holley of Pulaski; brothers, Joe Hershel Seymore of Leoma, Holbert (Faye) Seymore of Lawrenceburg, TN.; grandchildren, Danielle Stanford, Ian (Lizzy) Massey, Zach (Rebecca) Marion, Jarred Marion; great grandchildren, Mahala and Addie Stanford, Sophia Marion and Eli Gass; extended family and friends that knew her.
