Marlene Talley Marburger

Marlene Talley Marburger of Taylor, passed away Thursday, December 15, 2016 peacefully with her family by her side.

Marlene was born September 27, 1934 in Taylor, TX to Thelma Frehner and Edwin Talley, Sr. Marlene graduated from Taylor High School in 1953. She was married to Lonnie Marburger, Jr. for almost 63 years.

Marlene graduated from Taylor High School and was a firm believer in Once a Duck, Always a Duck!

Marlene and Lonnie lived in various cities in Texas before settling down permanently in Taylor to raise their 4 daughters. Marlene was lucky enough to be a stay-at-home Mom, but loved filling in part time when needed at the American General Insurance office in Austin. Her daughters were also lucky to have her as a stay-at-home Nana keeping the 4 grandchildren while they worked.

Her hobbies included hunting, fishing, family beach and lake trips, and of course shopping, but most of all she cherished attending every event for her grandchildren. Marlene loved to cook and the family enjoyed a home cooked meal every night. Holidays were filled with cookies and candies that she made for the family, but also shared with Lonnie’s co-workers every Christmas.

Christmas was one of her favorite holidays and she made sure the yard was fully decorated for everyone in Taylor to enjoy.

Survivors include her daughters Becky Marburger, Sharon Marcon and husband David, Vickie Marshall and husband Chris, granddaughters Ryan Marshall Winkelmann and husband Mack, and Mallory Marcon, grandsons Brady Marshall and Seth Marcon (all of Taylor), brother-in-law Rodney Marburger and wife Peggy, and many nieces and nephews. She is preceded in death by her husband Lonnie Marburger, Jr., mother Thelma Poldrack, and daughter Pam Marburger.

Visitation will be 3:00 – 3:30 P.M., Wednesday, December 21, 2016 at Providence Funeral Home in Taylor with services immediately following at 3:30 P.M. Burial will be at St. Peters Cemetery in Coupland, TX.

Honorary Pallbearers are grandsons Brady Marshall and Seth Marcon, nephews Timmy Talley and Tommy Talley, and Mack Winkelmann and Bailey O’Campo (boyfriend of Mallory Marcon).
