Marlene S. Maurer

Marlene S. Maurer, 87, went home to be with her Lord and Savior on October 31, 2022. She was born on October 29, 1935 in Lakewood, Ohio to the late Marjorie Alice and Eugene La Vann Swanson. She is preceded in death by her husband of 46 years, David Noel Maurer.

Marlene devoted her life to God, family and serving others. She was a registered nurse for many years before taking on the full time role of mother and caregiver. Marlene spent many hours volunteering her time at her church, especially in the kitchen, and in many various community efforts.

She lived a long beautiful life, and one full of love. She cherished celebrating holidays and special events, especially with her many friends and her adoring family. Her spirit will live on through the tremendous impact she had in all of us.

She is survived by her brother, Robert Swanson of Kent, WA; two sons, David Maurer and his wife, Allison of Raleigh, NC and Jeff Maurer of Apex, NC; daughter Pam Carr and her husband Brian of Lovettsville, VA; six grandchildren: Roland, Tristan, Katie, Josie, Margot and Henry, and two great granddaughters, Maeve and Sutton; and many nieces, nephews, and other special relatives.

A Celebration of Life service will be held on Saturday, November, 12, 2022 at 2pm with a gathering immediately after the service at Haygood United Methodist Church, 4712 Haygood Rd., Virginia Beach VA 23455. Private burial will be held at Rosewood Memorial Park. In lieu of flowers, the family asks you donate to Haygood United Methodist Church in her memory.
