Marian Rita Keeler (Misaner)
April 1930 – November 28, 2025

Marian Rita Keeler (Misaner) passed peacefully on November 28, 2025, surrounded by love and memories of a life well lived. Born in Boston, Massachusetts, in April 1930, Marian grew up with a determined spirit and a mind for numbers. She was a proud 1949 graduate of the Bentley School of Accounting and Finance, where she distinguished herself as one of only 5 female day students in the class of 633 students.

Marian's heart was forever tied to the outdoors and the ocean. As a young woman, she spent her summers in Gloucester, where sea air and sunshine shaped some of her happiest memories. She later lived with her parents at the historic Blynman Farm on Summer Street in Manchester-by-the-Sea, a place that deepened her love for Cape Ann's natural beauty.

A longtime resident of Essex, Massachusetts, Marian was well known for her warmth, kindness, and friendly smile. Marian enjoyed a career managing and presiding over municipal creditunions for the towns of Manchester, Beverly and Stoneham. Many in the community will fondly remember her later years working at Crosby's Market in Manchester-by-the-Sea, where she greeted neighbors and visitors alike with genuine care and conversation.

Marian was predeceased by her mother, Margaret, and her father, Everett, a World War I veteran of the Canadian Royal Army. She is survived by her daughter, Joan Hoysradt, her husband, John Morrison, and his children, Jess and Tim. Marian also leaves behind her daughter, Jean Loebelenz, Jean's husband, Brian, and their children, Michael and Amanda. She is also survived by, her son, Fred Hoysradt, his wife, Michelle Flanders, and her sons, Sam and Cody.

Marian's life was marked by quiet strength, sharp wit, and a deep appreciation for simple joys-an ocean breeze, a familiar path in the woods, and the comfort of home. She will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her.
