Marian Corr Obituary

Marian V. Corr
New Hartford
Marian V. (Wurm) Corr passed away on November 19, 2009, at the age of 39+. Born in Utica on September 25, 1920, she is the daughter of Carl and Mary Wurm and the widow of Joseph A. Corr. She is survived by her sister Jean Gobeo, her daughter Marita (Richard) Baker, and her sons Paul (Janice), Peter (Jill), David (Kathy), Robert (Cindy) and Daniel, and by her grandchildren (Allyson, Devin, Jacqueline, Kelly, Ken, Kim, Kristina, Lauren, Ryanne, Scott, Sherri, Stacey and Theresa) and great-grandchildren (Allie, Bailey, Connor, Kate, Kaitlyn, Kyle and Zachary). She was predeceased by her daughter, Eileen, and her grandson, Joseph. A graduate of Utica Free Academy, Marian was a devoted mother who raised seven children while working as a legal secretary and a secretary for different employers over the years. She is also well remembered by her many customers and friends for decades-long service as an Avon representative. Marian loved life, and she was the life of every party. She was an exceptional person whose greatest happiness came from helping her family and friends. Marian enjoyed athletics. Her many grandchildren remember Mimi teaching them how to walk on their hands and stand on their heads when she was in her seventies. Marian continued water skiing until the age of 76 when she suffered a stroke. She resided thereafter at Maefair Health Care Center in Trumbull, CT, where she continued to brighten the lives of those around her until her passing. The funeral service will be held on Monday, November 23, at 9:30 AM from the Dimbleby, Friedel, Williams & Edmunds Funeral Home located at 13 Oxford Road in New Hartford and at 10 AM at St. John the Evangelist Church located at 66 Oxford Road in New Hartford. Interment will follow at Mt. Olivet Cemetery in Whitesboro. Friends may consider a donation to the Utica Zoo in her memory.
