HUBBARD -- Marguerite Elaine Campana passed away peacefully on Thursday, March 5, 2026. She was a loving wife, devoted sibling, cherished parent and adoring grandparent whose life was defined by kindness, strength and unwavering dedication to her family.
Marguerite was born Aug. 5, 1947, in Youngstown, a daughter of Michael and Kathryn Smith Mikita. She was a 1965 Hubbard High School graduate and a member of St. Patrick Roman Catholic Church. She attended beauty school at Lewis Weinburger and Hill Beauty Academy and was a self-employed cosmetologist; she also was a receptionist in the medical field.

Campana, whom she married Sept. 13, 1969; her children, Jerome Michael Campana (Amy) and Melissa Welsh (Tim); her sisters, Kathryn Schlatter and Carol "Shortie" Mikita; and her grandchildren, Nicholas Campana, Shane Campana, Samuel Welsh and Joseph Welsh.

Marguerite will be remembered for her generosity, gentle spirit and the warmth she brought to all who knew her. Her legacy lives on in the family she loved and the many lives she touched.
