Marcy was the co-owner, along with her husband, of Engineered Wood Products in Fond du Lac and was currently employed at Society Insurance, based in Fond du Lac, where Marcy proudly obtained her Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Certificate.

Marcy loved meeting new people, making friends, and being the most joyous soul in the room. Her laugh could be heard far and wide and you’d soon be joining in with the contagious laughter. Marcy will be remembered as an honest and loving woman, an avid gardener, a jewelry creator, and a fantastic cook & baker. Marcy also enjoyed going on many adventures with her husband, which included spending time on the pontoon boat and exploring the UP of Michigan.
