Marjorie T. Battisti (nee Cunningham), aged 83, of Novelty, passed away peacefully, surrounded by family in her home, in the early morning hours of July 9th, 2024. She was born November 15, 1940, in Cleveland, to the late Edward and Ethel Cunningham.
Marge enjoyed a long career riding, raising and breeding horses on her family farm, Cedar Fair Arabians Horse Farm.
When she wasn't riding horses, Marge enjoyed gardening, reading and traveling. But most of all, she loved spending time with her family – especially her five grandchildren.
Marge was the loving wife of the late Robert E. Battisti Sr.; dearest mother of Robert E. Battisti Jr., Douglas Battisti, and Barbara (Jason) Taggart; beloved grandmother of Aubrey and Bailey Zanella, Lily, Brendan and Quinn Taggart; sister of Mary Keller; aunt to many nieces and nephews; and devoted caretaker to her loving dogs Tessa and Katie, and many other animals she loved throughout her life.
The Battisti family will receive friends from 4:00 – 7:00 PM Friday, July 26th, 2024 at St. John Funeral Home, 16381 Chillicothe Rd., Bainbridge. A Memorial Service will be held at 10:00 AM Saturday, July 27th at St. John Funeral Home. Burial to immediately follow at Riverside Cemetery in Novelty.
Donations to Pet Fix of Northeast Ohio petfixnortheastohio.org are lovingly appreciated.

After knowing her for almost 50 years (wow), I still can't get past calling her Mrs. Battisti, because that's how I addressed her since I was 9 years old, when a little girl from down the street needed a job so that she could have a horse, she gave me that opportunity. I worked at Cedar Fair Arabians for 12 years until I was 21. She was a huge influential part of my childhood - the horses, the people, the experiences, and the stories, lots and lots of stories. I live far away now, and regret I will not be able to be there for the services. Every time I come home to Cleveland I made it a point to go and visit with her; I feel very grateful I was able to visit with her in December when I was home last.
My deepest condolences to the family - she was an amazing person and will be greatly missed.
