At a very young age her family moved to the Austin area where she graduated from Austin High School. She married the love of her life, Clarence C. Cullen, on June 19, 1937.

Maribel loved spending time with family, friends, watching birds, especially her hummingbirds at their feeder, her four pampered sheep, gardening, a good game of 42 dominos, and just loved life in general. She was a very active member of the Buda community until recent years.

Grandchildren include Kelly Logan, Chris Logan and Fred Cummins, Joan Logan and Renee Villeneuve, Amy and Kelly Artery, Kim Cullen, Donnie and Lisa Stern, and Crystal and Steven Cox. Great-grandchildren include Christopher Kyle and Rebecca Logan, Cullen Logan, Morgan Vaughn, Taylor Vaughn, and Clint Stern. Maribel is also survived by many other close relatives and friends.
