Marcia A. Dennis

Marcia A. Dennis, 64, of Fort Wayne, died Saturday August 30, 2025, Marcia "Pasha" Dennis was the world's best wife, mother, and Grandma, and entered into eternal life as the trumpets of heaven sounded, and the choirs of angels sang. She was married 42 years to the love of her life, Todd. Together they were blessed with five children and 11 grandchildren, who were the center of her world. Together they founded her rib empire, Ziffles Rib Bar- a legacy that lives on. Marcia was a guiding light who never met a stranger. She led selflessly with compassion, kindness, and optimism. She gave graciously as a teacher, and a healer. She instilled values of faith, love, and selflessness to anyone in her presence. Marcia's family and friends were her greatest treasures. She devoted her life to the family she nurtured, and the countless lives she made brighter. Her personality and sense of humor were contagious. Her spirit lives on as the sun rises each day. As we honor Marcia, we celebrate her eternal life in heaven.
