Marion Emer Obituary
Mrs. Emer was born March 3, 1931 in Buffalo, a daughter of the late Rudolph and Lisbeth (Schulze) Epperlein.

She loved participating in family events, both boating with her Northern Family, and joining her Southern Family to cheer on her beloved Buffalo Bills. Most recently, she returned to reside with her daughter in Attica, where her days were brightened by getting to know her first great-great-grandson. She will be dearly missed.
Marion is survived by her children, Wendy (Donald) Koch of Attica, Donna Erny of Cape Coral, Florida, and Raymond (Brenda Jewell) Emer of Winter Haven, Florida. 10 grandchildren, 13 great-grandchildren, a great-great-granson, along with several nieces and nephews also survive.
In death, Marion is reunited with her parents; her husband, Raymond Emer; and brother, Werner (late Louise) Epperlein.
