It is with deep sorrow and love that we announce the passing of Marianne Roberta (Catalane) Fidler, who departed this life peacefully on July 24, 2025, at the age of 93.
Born in The Bronx, New York, to Joseph and Albina (Tempia) Catalane, Marianne lived a life marked by resilience, compassion, and a love for her family. She spent many years in South Central Pennsylvania, where she was the proud owner and operator of Accent Temps, a staffing agency that reflected her dedication to helping others find meaningful work and opportunity. She later retired from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, leaving behind a legacy of service and professionalism.
Marianne was a devoted member of Good Shepherd Catholic Church, where her faith was a guiding light throughout her life. She was also actively involved in the Hampden Township Civic Club, contributing her time and energy to the betterment of her community.
She cherished time with her family above all else and found great joy in playing golf, a pastime that brought her both peace and connection. In her final years, she made her home in Baltimore, Maryland, where she was lovingly cared for by her daughter.
Marianne is survived by her children:
Stephen Fidler and his wife Terrie of Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania
Scott Fidler and his wife Danica of Monterey, Tennessee
Stacy Williams and her husband Chuck of Baltimore, Maryland
She was a proud and loving grandmother to:
Matt Fidler and his wife Gia
Tim McGowan and his wife Amy
Renee Fidler
Krissy Rodenbush and her husband DJ
Morgan Renn Lethe
Julia Williams
Charley Williams
Michaela Tse
And a cherished great-grandmother to: Grace, Nora, William, Kolly, and Keegan
Marianne was preceded in death by her beloved sister Frances Allen, her longtime partner James Eagan, and the father of her children Norman Fidler.
A private family gathering will be held at a later date to honor Marianne's life and legacy.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made to Cherry Children's Music Outreach, 8702 Riverscape Court, Odenton, MD 21113, www.cherrymusicoutreach.org.
Her presence will be deeply missed, but her spirit will remain with us always.
