Marian J. Booth 1931-2020

She was born Aug. 9, 1931, in Youngstown, daughter of Roy and Ida Patton.

Marian belonged to the First Federated Church of North Jackson, where she was baptized and married. She was involved in Women’s Fellowship of the Church and also was a member of Lake Milton Women’s League, Order of the Eastern Star Chapter 278, American Legion Auxiliary of Lake Milton 737, lifetime member of Veterans of Foreign Wars Auxiliary 9571, American Business Women’s Association, and Ladies Oriental Shrine of North America.

Marian thought of others and always wanted to help people. She was involved in writing letters to stop the mistreatment of Vietnam POWs. Bradley Smith of Lake Milton was a POW for seven years and told Marian years later that all the letters that she and other women wrote from the United States saved their lives.

Marian and her husband, Don, loved to dance and belonged to many dance clubs over the years. She also loved to golf and play bridge. She was a devoted wife, mother and grandmother. She will be sadly missed by her loving family and many friends.

She is survived by her husband, Donald Booth, whom she married on April 21 1951; son, Chuck (Lynn) Booth; two daughters, Pam (Tom) Kubic, Lori (Frank) Delvecchio; three grandchildren, Erich Booth, Thomas Bennett and Angela Bennett; and one great-granddaughter, Arianna Bennett.

Marian was preceded in death by her father and mother; three brothers, Dick Patton, Don Patton, Billy Patton; and grandson Lee Booth.

Private family service will be at Lane Funeral Home Austintown Chapel. A service will be held for extended family and friends at a later date.

Family has requested that all contributions be made to the Lee M. Booth Memorial Scholarship and sent to Youngstown State University Foundation, 606 Wick Ave., Youngstown, OH 44502.
