On December 1, 1945 she was united in marriage to Timothy C. Devlin at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in David City, NE. Marie and Tim first lived in Wray, Colorado. They moved to York in 1952 when Tim was transferred to the York Post Office and their children were enrolled in St. Joseph Catholic School.
Faith was always first for Marie as she was an active member of St. Joseph Catholic Church, Altar Society and Catholic Daughters. She also served as a volunteer for her children’s activities including Cub Scouts, junior CDA, pep club sponsor, school committees and fund raisers.
Marie worked for many years in bookkeeping and accounting for Lindell, Sylvester & Lindell, CPA and later for Gary Rowe Accounting. Her hobbies included card clubs with Tim and many bridge groups with special friends. She loved gardening and making her yard beautiful. Marie was also an excellent baker and cook. After retirement, Tim and Marie enjoyed traveling in North America and Europe.
