Marion Waine Chriscoe Lyndon, 78, of Asheboro, passed away peacefully at Moses Cone Hospital on Saturday, June 28, 2025. Marion was born on May 30,1947 in Randolph County to Winfred "Barney" and Palma Lee "Pam" Chriscoe. Marion was a precious mother, loving wife, wonderful Grammy, and Matriarch of the family. Marion was the backbone of our family, the shining light in a dark room, and the heart of our family.
A true lover of life’s simple joys, Marion could often be found trying her luck at the casino, where she lit up the room with her laughter and sharp sense of humor. If not at the casino, it is likely she is engaged in her favorite TV shows or eating a warm roll with some butter…and more butter stacked on top! She adored her loyal dachshund, Maggie, and her independent cat, Gibby, who brought her comfort and companionship every day.
But above all, Marion lived for her family. Her children and grandchildren were her greatest joy, and she never missed a chance to brag about them, cheer them on, or wrap them in a hug that somehow made everything feel better. Her love was deep, unconditional, and unforgettable.
Though we will miss her fiery spirit, warm heart, and contagious smile, we take comfort in knowing she is finally at peace.
She is survived by her loving husband Ed Lyndon of Asheboro, son Derrick and wife Russelette Lyndon of Asheboro, daughter Tracy Smith of Raleigh, and three beautiful grandchildren Rebekah Smith, Zachary Smith, Hannah Ray husband Landon, along with countless others whose lives she touched with her love and laughter.
She is preceded in death by her Parents and two brothers Eddie Lee Kennedy and David (Chigger) Smith Chriscoe.
