Marcia Leidall

Marcia was born on Nov. 29, 1949 to Emil and Lillian (Robertson) Johnson in Osage, IA. She grew up on a farm west of Otranto, IA. She was baptized and confirmed at Deer Creek Lutheran Church in Carpenter, IA. She attended grade school in Otranto, junior-high school in Grafton and high school in St. Ansgar. Marcia attended the Mason City School of Cosmetology and graduated with the class of 1968.

Marcia was united in marriage to Terry Leidall on December 20, 1968 at Deer Creek Lutheran Church, and they were blessed with the birth of two children, Jason and Kelly.

Marcia worked for the Good Samaritan Center in St. Ansgar, IA as a C.N.A/Therapy Aid for over 30 years.

Marcia was a wonderful wife, mother and grandma! Her greatest joy was spending time with her family and watching her grandchildren grow. Marcia loved vacationing in Northern Minnesota, visiting her sister, fishing the many lakes, sitting around the campfire with her family, and listening to the loons after a good fish-fry. Each of us holds our own precious memory of Marcia in our hearts and she would want every person who touched her life to honor her memory in their own way.

Memorial services will be held at 11a.m. Saturday, Sept. 4, 2010 at Deer Creek Lutheran Church, Carpenter, IA, with Rev. Gary Gonnerman officiating. Burial will be in First Lutheran Cemetery, St. Ansgar, IA. Visitation will be held Friday, Sept. 3, 2010 from 5-7:30 p.m. at Schroeder & Sites Funeral Home, St. Ansgar, IA.
