Marisa Stram
January 30, 1961 – July 3, 2025
Marisa Stram, age 64, of Novi, Michigan, passed away peacefully on July 3, 2025. Born on January 30, 1961, to the late Frederick and Helen Stram, Marisa was a devoted daughter, sister, aunt, and friend.
She is lovingly remembered by her brother, David Stram, and was preceded in death by her brother Rick Stram. Marisa was a cherished aunt to Lisa (Nick) Cervi and Lindsay, and a proud great-aunt to Norah, Adriana, and Enzo.
Marisa dedicated over 35 years of her life to caring for others through her work as an X-ray technician at Garden City Hospital. Her compassion extended far beyond her professional life-she was a lifelong animal lover, finding joy and companionship in her beloved birds and her devoted dog, Lacey, who survives her.
Family and friends are invited to honor Marisa's life at a visitation on Friday, July 11, 2025, from 4:00 to 8:00 p.m. at the O'Brien/Sullivan Funeral Home, 41555 Grand River Ave, Novi, MI 48375. Cremation will follow, with her final resting place at St. Hedwig Cemetery in Dearborn Heights, Michigan.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Michigan Humane Society, in recognition of Marisa's deep love for animals.
She will be dearly missed and lovingly remembered by all who knew her.
