Celeste Marr Obituary

Celeste Hodgkins Marr

1964 ~ 2020

Southern Pines

Celeste Hodgkins Marr, 56, formerly of Southern Pines, passed peacefully in her sleep at her home in Raleigh.

Born in Moore County in January of 1964, she was the daughter of the late Norris and Sara Hodgkins, Jr. Celeste graduated from UNC – Chapel Hill. Celeste lived in Raleigh and worked as an esthetician and massage therapist, retiring in 2017. She was married to Henry "Hank" Marr and mother to their son, Parker. Celeste was a talented musician. An animal lover, she loved her dogs, Baby & Jack.

Celeste would like to let us know that she has been called home. She is reuniting with family and friends that she has not seen in a long time; with the freedom to play her music with her favorite musician Prince. Music, love and laughter are guaranteed, and her mission here has been completed.

Surviving Celeste are her son Parker Marr, husband Henry Marr, sisters Caroline Hodgkins Eddy (Ben), Grace Hodgkins (Special Friend Frank Dunn), niece Laura Eddy-Roche (Jesse), nephews John Eddy, Matt Eddy and great nephew Micah Roche and many special aunts uncles and cousins..

A celebration of her life will be held in Raleigh at a later date.
