Marie was the prime example of the American dream! Originally born in East Germany on Aug. 7th, 1941. She married an Army Soldier, John Regel, and came to America. After learning English, she was proud to become a US Citizen in 1983. Marie went on to earn her college degree in business. She had a long successful career and retired from Pfizer Pharmaceuticals. She was fiercely independent, persevered like no other and had an unyielding work ethic.
Marie had a gift of making everything she touched beautiful. She could light up the darkest place with her smile and reflected Christ-like character in all areas of her life. Her strong faith inspired everyone she knew. Well done good and faithful servant!
