Marcia A. Doyle

Marcia A. (nee Manduka) Doyle, of Clifton, passed away peacefully on November 14, 2025 at the age of 91 in Wayne, NJ. Marcia was born September 9, 1934 in Camden NJ and spent her early years in Oaklyn before moving to Clifton, where she would call home for 65 years.
Marcia's dedication to helping others was evident from a young age leading her to pursue a career in healthcare. She graduated from Abington Memorial Hospital School of Nursing in PA in 1955, becoming a Registered Nurse. She started her career at the Veterans Administration Hospital in East Orange, where she provided care and support to those who served our country. She also spent many years caring for patients in her community at Daughters of Miriam in Clifton, where her kindness and expertise were invaluable. Her compassionate nature extended beyond her work life, she genuinely cared for each and every person she encountered.
Marcia's life was rich with interests and hobbies that kept her spirit vibrant. She relished the summer vacations spent down the shore and in the Catskills, creating memories that would last a lifetime. An avid reader, she also enjoyed the mental challenge of crosswords and jigsaw puzzles, keeping her mind sharp and engaged, even into her later years. She even learned to be the scorekeeper at her sons little league baseball games. Marcia's ability to find humor in the everyday and her considerate nature were gifts that she generously shared with her family, friends, and all who had the pleasure of crossing paths with her.
Family was the cornerstone of Marcia's life. She was the beloved wife of the late Ronald F. Doyle, with whom she shared 67 years of marriage. Together, they showed the values of love and devotion that are now carried on by their children: Kevin P. Doyle and his wife Robin, Wendy D. Pope and her husband Michael, Mark A. Doyle and his wife Kathy, and Jeff L. Doyle. Marcia's joy was multiplied by her grandchildren, Megan, Kelly and Kaitlyn Doyle, who will forever cherish the warmth and laughter of their grandmother.
As we bid farewell to Marcia A. Doyle, we celebrate a life lived with love, laughter, and a deep commitment to others. Marcia's memory will be held in the hearts of her family and friends as a reminder of the joy and kindness that one person can bring into the world.
