Marianne Hall White, born March 3, 1946 in Milwaukee, WI passed away on Friday, September 30, 2016. There are hundreds of people that will not only mourn the loss of Marianne, but more importantly, mourn the loss of being loved by her, chocolate chip cookies by the bagful, sopapilla cheesecake, and holiday turkeys. Oh my gosh, the turkey! Marianne had an all-encompassing love for her family and friends. We were fed, hugged, supported and given hours upon hours of laughter in her presence. Her laugh was infectious, and when she looked at you, you felt like you were in on whatever the joke may be. She was a gracious and fun hostess of holidays and events. Everyone was welcome, and everyone was family in her home. Those of us left behind will laugh a little less, eat a lot less, and miss her terribly. Marianne is survived by her husband, Timothy White; her children Elizabeth White Schall and her husband Mike; her son Sean White and his wife Erin; her 6 incredible grandchildren Ryan, Lane, Tanner and Charissa Schall and Rylie and Kendall White; as well as her sister Betsy Vance and her husband Roger, her brother Jim and his wife Maryanna as well as numerous nieces, nephews, great nieces, great nephews and numerous friends. She was preceded in death by her brothers Robert and David Hall.

Birds
When I was about 7, I went to visit Aunt Marianne's house in Corpus Christi. We went out to run around for the day, and when we got home, there was a bird flying around the house. Anyone that knew my Aunt knows that she was TERRIFIED of birds. She ran out of the house and slammed the door, leaving both Lizzie and I in the house (age 6 and 7) to fend for ourselves. After chasing the bird around the house with brooms for about 30 minutes, with her yelling directives from the garage, we managed to get it into the fireplace. Aunt Marianne finally came back in the house and proceeded to tell us how to build a bird proof cage of fireplace screen and magazines to protect us all.
