Marsha Pedigo Obituary

Marsha Jo Pedigo, 84, of Columbus, passed away peacefully on Friday, October 3, 2025, at Hickory Creek at Columbus.

She was born March 28, 1941, in Columbus, the daughter of Emerson and Emma Lee (Freeman) Watson, who both preceded her in death. Marsha was a 1959 graduate of Columbus High School.

A devoted member of Lakeview Church of Christ, Marsha's faith was an important part of her life. She loved cheering for IU Basketball and treasured time spent with her family-especially her grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and her many nieces and nephews who brought her great joy through the years.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her beloved son, Jay Pedigo; sister, Vicki; and brother, Brent.

Survivors include her loving sons, Stacee (Peggy) Pedigo and Ryan Pedigo, both of Columbus; brothers, Steve (Betsy) Watson of Louisville and Rick (Betty) Watson of Bloomington; grandchildren, Emily, Cailyn, Kasadee, and Ethan; great-grandchildren, Shayla and Ava; and several cherished nieces and nephews.

Funeral services will be held at 10:00 a.m. Friday, October 10, 2025, at Myers-Reed Chapel, with burial to follow at Garland Brook Cemetery. Visitation will be held from 4:00 to 8:00 p.m. Thursday and one hour prior to the service Friday at the funeral home.

Memorial contributions in Marsha's name may be made to Lakeview Church of Christ.
