Hider, Marcia
Marcia Hider, age 77. Her lighthearted, joyful spirit crossed over to the light of peace on July 17, 2017. Our mom was a true character, in the best of ways. To know her was to know her loud and wonderfully infectious laugh. She had a fun, forgiving, and down-to-earth personality—and drew so much laughter from others...oh, the things that would come out of her mouth! She was one to always be herself, and her non-judgmental ways allowed all others to be themselves, knowing they would always be accepted. Our dad always said, "Your mom brings sunshine into the world"—how so very right he was. Our mom taught us to live life with laughter and joy, and to find it in the smallest of things. For that, we are forever grateful. Marcia is survived by her children, Steve Hider, Erin Nowilaty and Jill Peters; grandson, Joey Peters; brothers, Ron Hill and Greg Barr; sister-in-law, Carolyn Hunter; as well as Haani Nowilaty, Randy Kaminsky & David Peters. She is joined together again with her mother, Helen Barr; her husband, Bob Hider; her son, John Hider; grandson, Ash Nowilaty; sister-in-law, Ann Hill; and many cherished friends...and surely with a "big, fat cheeseburger and a great-big hot fudge sundae"! Special blessings and thank you to her 'family' at Mayfair Village Nursing Ctr; her beloved Shawn, especially, and so many special others! A private memorial service will be held. WE LOVE YOU, MOM!
