Dorothy (Musa) Marconi, 98 of Endwell, NY, went peacefully home to be with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ on October 6, 2022.
Dorothy lived a full vibrant life and is survived by her four beloved children, JoAnn Bakke, Linda (Dan) Phillips, Christine (Mike) Doyle, and Mark Marconi. She also leaves behind eight grandchildren, Dan, Molly, Colleen, Breanna, Wesley, Rebekah, Phil and Tim; also her greatest joy was her great-grandbabies, Christian, Rylee, Coltan, Caiden, Brody, Mason, Michael, Lilly, Joshua, Cassie, Maura, Arya, Leo, Meredith, Silas and Jeremia. She is also survived by her sister, Phyllis; brother, Dick; sister-in-law, Laura; two precious nieces, Arlene Powell and Renee Luba; special cousin, Val Hogan. Dorothy was predeceased by her granddaughter, Hollie; her sister, Florence; her brother, Bob; her sister-in-law, Pat; her brother-in-law, Patrick; her best friend and lifelong companion, Walter Yankowski.
Dorothy had an unending zest for life, a positive attitude and a deep faith in God. She served as a Deacon in the church and did countless acts of kindness and generosity during her 98 years. She was a truly loving mother, loyal friend and had a heart to give to others unsurpassed by most. She was strong and had a great sense of humor. Dorothy had a gift for hospitality and through the years hosted many many family gatherings at her home. She had a reputation for being an amazing cook and baker. Dorothy did love clothes and she could be considered a fashionista! (the jewelry matched the purse that matched the shoes…..you get the picture!) “Shop till you drop” describes her appetite for shopping and yet, she gave unselfishly to others, probably more than she kept for herself. She leaves behind a legacy of true love, generosity and a deep devotion to God.
The family will always be indebted to her wonderful aids, Jess, Rylee, Rochelle, Chris, Jean and Andrea. May God bless you. Much gratitude goes to the compassionate staff at Lourdes Hospital Emergency Room, with special thanks going to Dorothy’s male nurse, Scott. Truly God’s presence was felt at Lourdes Hospital.
A Celebration of Life Service will be held at Triumphant Life Church (formerly Christ the King Church) 1511 Davis Ave. Endwell, NY, on Saturday October 15th at 11 AM with calling hours starting at 10 AM. In lieu of flowers for Dorothy, the family requests that you do an act of kindness…..give a smile, call someone that’s ill, take the trash out for an elderly neighbor, volunteer at a soup kitchen….the list goes on…this is what Dorothy would want…And may God Bless you as you Bless others.
