Marcia Chase Obituary

Marcia Roesling Chase March 13, 1932 - April 1, 2017 La Jolla - Marcia passed away peacefully, surrounded by family on April 1, 2017. She was born to parents, Ralph and Gladys Roesling, in Berkeley, California, where she met her husband, Paul Chase. They married in 1955 and began their family shortly thereafter. In 1966, the family moved to La Jolla, where Marcia was able to enjoy her passion for swimming in the ocean and playing tennis. Marcia loved her family, friends and all animals, imparting that fondness to her children. Marcia is survived by her children, Monica Chase (William Fitzsimmons), Marianne Schiff (Bruce), Paul Frederick Chase, Hillary Benedetti (James) and seven grandchildren. Mimi, as she was known to her grandchildren, had a strong personality and a big heart. She believed in helping those in need. She was dearly loved and will be greatly missed.
