Marian Cousins Obituary
Born Feb. 2, 1923, in Genesee, she was a daughter of the late Earl and Zelma M. Palmatier Burrell. On Sept. 14, 1946, in Pavilion, N.Y., she married James J. Cousins Jr., who passed away Nov. 10, 1998.
Marian was a 1941 graduate of Limestone High School. On Aug. 12, 1943, she enlisted in the U.S. Navy and served as a communications expert in Washington, D.C., during World War II and was honorably discharged Dec. 9, 1945.
Marian attended First Presbyterian Church, and was a charter and over 50-year member of the Lydia Brand Chapter of Eastern Star. She enjoyed playing the piano, shopping, participating in family gatherings and will always be remembered for her witty sayings.
She is survived by three daughters, Patricia (Ross) Neidich, Joette (Bill) Johnson and Robin (Greg) Pavone, all of Bradford; six grandchildren, Jim (Kristin) Ronan, Michael Edwards, Lindsay (Michael) Gianoutsos, Katie Neidich, Nikki Pavone and Megan Pavone; four great-grandchildren, Alexander Ronan, Jackson Ronan, Madison Ronan and Alexandria Edwards; and a sister, Betty Campbell of Henderson, Ky.
In addition to her parents and husband, she was preceded in death by a sister, Joyce Arthur.
Friends are invited to call from 11 a.m. to noon Saturday (July 15, 2017) at the First Presbyterian Church, where funeral services will be held at noon with the Rev. Robert Klouw, co-pastor, officiating. Military honors will be accorded in the sanctuary after the service. Burial will follow in Willow Dale Cemetery.
