Marsha Lynn Hummel, 67, of Ballwin, Missouri, baptized into hope of Christ’s resurrection on Thursday December 23, 2021.

My father and I are saddened to hear of Marsha's passing. Marsha was a wonderful caretaker to my mother, Mary Gocke. She became a friend to our family and was so kind to my mother.

To the Hummel family near and far, I extend my condolences. I was fortunate to grow up with Jack and have Aunt Marsha to be in my life through our church community at Saint Clare. She was a kind woman who always had that love and joy for family. On game days where the team would get an earful from Coach Jeff after a less than stellar performance, Marsha would always be there after with words of encouragement. She will be missed.

My sincere condolences to all of Marsha’s family. We were next door neighbors for over 30 years and it is hard to imagine looking in her yard and not seeing her and CJ out there. She was such a sweet person and always ready to help with anything. I will certainly miss her.

Marsha was a good and kind person and even a better friend. I worked with Marsha in the OR at Missouri Baptist Hospital. She was a fantastic nurse and was the ultimate patient advocate. I have great memories of our trips to Flordia, sailing on the lake in Cuba, our many conversations and our friendship. Marsha, you will be missed, my friend. My heart goes out to her family.

I worked with Marsha for many years at Missouri Baptist. She was always kind. She was a good friend. When my daughter and Laura and Andrew were young we did things together. She shared her love for Cuba sailing. She will be missed.
