Burial will follow in Memorial Park Cemetery under the direction of Henninger-Hinson Funeral Home. Marie Jewel Herrian left this earth January 21, 2012 to accompany the heavenly angels with her musical talents. Born September 13, 1918, she began playing piano and Hawaiian steel guitar for church and radio, giving music lessons at the age of twelve, continuing for seventy years. Her late husband of 67 years, Johnny, characterized her well saying, “She is a good woman”. One of her greatest pleasures was traveling with her friends and family, especially to Hawaii. She would beam recounting memories of travel adventures, especially those created with grandchildren. Family was the core of Marie Herrian’s existence seen through loving her daughters, Helen, wife of Don Kletcher of Marlton, New Jersey, Darla Goodwin of Las Vegas, Nevada, and son Jack Herrian with wife, Shirley of Bison; eleven grandchildren and eleven great-grandchildren. She prepared family feasts with ease and laughter at a table extending from door to door, for these were the hub of her heart. Mourning the loss of her sister is Marjorie, wife of Jim Butler, Waukomis and countless friends. All that were touched with the love of Marie Herrian would agree with her husband, “She was a good woman”. |
