Flossie Marks Obituary

``TOGETHER FOREVER"

Flossie M. Marks

Flossie M. Marks, 79, passed away Feb. 23, 2009 after a lengthy illness.

Her greatest joy was taking care of her family and gardening. Flossie was also the Past President of the PTA at Bettes Elementary and North High School. She enjoyed playing shuffle board with her husband while spending the winters in Florida. Flossie was a kind sweet hearted woman who never had a bad word to say about anyone and was loved by all she touched.

She was preceded in death by her loving husband of 53 years, Robert H., and sons, Brett and Jim Marks. She is survived by her sons, Steve Marks (Shannon) of Mogadore and Jack Marks (Jennifer) of Akron, and grandchildren, Steve and Cara Marks of Akron, and Robert and Krista Marks of Florida.

Cremation has taken place. Memorial services will be held at a later date. To leave the family a special message, visit www.NewcomerAkron.com. (NEWCOMER FUNERAL HOME, 330-784-3334.)

Aunt Flossie
Well,you and Uncle Bob are together again.Never could keep you apart for very long...
Memories go back Aunt Flossie to when we were kids growing up in Grandma's house.I especially remember saturdays when we would clean house. We'd stop and play jacks. I can still see your hands sweeping up those jacks.
You were always like a second mother to me, many times giving me good advice. You taught me so much.
I remember the surprise birthday party you two had for me in Florida. We had so many good times together. Uncle Bob said we were like Mother-Daughter. Our likes and dislikes were exact;y the same. As were our Phobias.
I miss you so much..but I know that you are where you have a Glorified Body.
I think of you every day and look forward to being with you some time in the future.

Love,
Patty Thoenen,Mogadore,Ohio

I gave you two grandchildren and you gave me wisdom and love. You will forever be a saint and a mother to me. Please put your loving arms around Stephen and give him the strength he needs and the same for
Cara, Robert and Krista. No one will ever come close to taking your place. Your where you need to be, with Grandpa. Hopefully, you'll watch over and guide us all. Love you always and forever.

Love,
Michelle
