Marie Ellen Gee

December 6, 1925 - January 29, 2022

Marie Ellen Gee, a woman with a heart of gold, passed away on January 29, 2022. Marie, 96, was born on December 6, 1925 in Lansing, Michigan, to Dick and Fern (Northrup) Pratt. Marie grew up on a farm and learned how to run a farm, including driving horse teams. She was a decisive, stubbornly independent, and strong-willed lady and was always willing to help anybody with anything when then were in need. She enjoyed mowing the lawn and snowblowing the drive! Marie worked at Auto Owners, at the Old Orchard Cider Mill, and at various other small jobs at various places. She enjoyed baking cookies using her mother's recipes and teaching her daughters and granddaughters how to make them. The secret was adding extra flour for the right feel. Marie enjoyed the company of her family. She enjoyed taking care of her chores, home, and all the necessary tasks. Marie is survived by her loving family, daughter, Pamela (Richard) Martin and sons Barry (Rose) Gee and Neal (Diane) Gee; three sisters, Dorothy Jones, Fern Dilley, and Faye Eacker; 11 grandchildren, 17 great-grandchildren, and 10 great-great-grandchildren. Marie was predeceased by her husband, Lawrence; sister, Vivian Drumheller; brother, Dick Lyle Pratt; and her parents. Friends are encouraged to support Marie's family at graveside services on Friday, February 4, 2022, 2:00 PM, at Deepdale Memorial Park in Lansing, with Chaplain Lloyd Scharer officiating. Family and friends are encouraged to share remembrances and condolences online in Marie's Tribute Page at www.prayfuneral.com. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to Sparrow Hospice. The family is in the care of Pray Funeral Home, Charlotte, Michigan.
