Marcia Ann Sloan of Tooele Utah passed away peacefully surrounded by her family on September 21, 2025.

Marcia was born to Robert and Beatrice Meindl in Chicago, Illinois on May 31, 1941. She was the oldest of three children, Arlene and Robert.

She married the love of her life Terry Sloan Sr. in 1960. Together they had three sons. Terry Jr. (Cathy) of Emmett, Idaho, Michael "Bob" (Kelli) of Tooele, Utah and Daniel "Dan" (Jody) of Alexandria, Kentucky.

Marcia lived in Illinois for most of her life (74 years). In 2017 she moved to Tooele Utah to be closer to her family. She was active in her boy's schools and choir in the church. She worked many years in the finance Industry. She very much enjoyed crafting, knitting, sewing, reading, collecting and camping.

Marcia and Terry Sr. loved to travel with their boys and families, her most favorite times were in Hawaii with the love of her life, also in Maui they renewed their vows to each other on their 40th wedding anniversary with her entire immediate family. They took many adventures together taking them around the world creating beautiful memories.

Once moving to Utah, she spent the rest of her time with her family along with her grandchildren and even more so enjoyed having great times with her great grandchildren going camping, traveling, making crafts, she loved sitting around the campfire with her dog CHEWY telling stories of her love life with Terry Sr. and her boys that challenged, teased and loved her dearly. She loved the Jurassic Park movies and the Nanny, eating Butterfinger candy bars and eating banana splits for dinner.

Marcia also loved talking about her 16 grandchildren and 24 great-grandchildren. They truly were the light of her life and gave her so much love and happiness up until the very end.

She was predeceased in death by her husband Terry Sr., her mother Beatrice, her father Robert Sr., and her daughter in law Susan "Sue".

Our family would like to Thank and share our gratitude and appreciation to Active Hospice especially Jade, Taya and Mindy.
