December 24, 1949 – January 11, 2021
at the age of 71 years

It is with heavy and broken hearts we announce the passing of Marie Elaine Gail Mahoney (Merrium), of Malakwa, BC on Monday January 11, 2021 at Shuswap Lake General Hospital. 

Marie was a loving wife, daughter, mother, grand-mother, great grand mother, and friend.  She is survived by her loving husband Pat Mahoney, sister-in-law and her husband, Micki and Rick of Vancouver Island, eldest daughter Tina Cindy Marie, youngest daughter, Audrey Lynn, and only son Raymond Joseph Elie, her grandchildren Ashley, Tyler, Amanda, Riley, Heidi, Melanie, Skye, Brody, Page and Dakota, great grandchildren Kyleigh, Hazel, Neaveh, Jayden and Jayson as well as Marie’s fur babies, Scooter, LC, April, Miss. Norris, Pretty Girl and Mugs.

Marie was an animal lover. She rescued many fur babies over her lifetime.

She also worked as a waitress for many years and was also an active member of the Legion.  Marie touched many people’s lives over her years and that is how she would want to be remembered.

We would like to thank Dr. Jack Beech for the years of medical care he gave Marie, along with the nurses at the Shuswap Lake General Hospital for the care and love given to Marie in her last days and to Fischer’s Funeral Services for their empathy and gentleness given to Marie’s family during this very difficult time.

Marie did not wish for a funeral service or celebration of life after her passing. Her wish was for her friends and family to remember her in their own way, with love.

Donations may be made in her memory to the local SPCA and/or The Cancer Society.
