Adele Marie Sweet JANUARY 4, 1938 - MARCH 23, 2013

Marie liked her middle name best so that is what she always went by. She was born in Los Angeles, California and graduated from Benjamin Franklin High School at the age of 18 and went to Pasadena City College for two years. After that she went to work for a thermostat/controls company and stayed there for approximately a year or two and then she started working for a wonderful couple in a law office. She had definitely found her niche there as she remained in law offices for the rest of her working career (over 50 years) where she worked her way up to becoming
a Paralegal.

Marie is survived by…
- Brother-In-Law Gregory Sweet
- Sister-In-Law Terry Sweet
- Sister Annona Rust
- Sister Caroyl Hanna
- Sister Merriam Decker
- Sister Bunny Bennett
- Brother Bud Strawser
- Several Nephews and Nieces

Two years ago Marie came down with breathing problems which led to her always having to rely on a breathing apparatus to help her breathe day and night. Her Son, Richard, was born with MS and two months ago, he passed away. Marie’s health really started to decline since then. She moved in with her terrific Brother-In-Law Greg and Sister-In-Law Terry and was happy there as they took
marvelous care of her.

The cause of her death was by congestive heart failure on March 23rd. We are indeed very sad at the loss of our Marie.
