A Beautiful Life, A Love Without End

In Loving Memory of Marley Joan Plan

February 28, 2025 – November 1, 2026

Some souls are simply too beautiful for words, and some goodbyes come far too soon.

With hearts broken in ways words could never begin to describe, we share the passing of our sweet angel, Marley Joan Plan, who was welcomed into the loving arms of Jesus far sooner than anyone could have imagined.

From the moment she entered this world, Marley was a little spitfire, full of life, curiosity, and a personality all her own. She brought a love so pure, a happiness so genuine, and a light so bright that the world will never be quite the same without her.

Marley had a way of filling every room and every heart with her presence. Her laughter was a melody her family will forever long to hear; her smile a memory forever etched in their hearts, and her sweet, spirited personality a gift they will always cherish.

There will forever be a little voice missing from the rooms she once filled, little messes her family would give anything to clean up again, and tiny, smudged handprints on the windows that now seem too precious to ever wipe away. Though her family dreamed of a lifetime with her, they will forever treasure the beautiful memories she leaves behind.

In the midst of unimaginable heartbreak, Marley’s big brother Jacob offered a beautiful thought that brought comfort to his family. He believed that Jesus must have needed Marley for something very important, and that was why He called her back home. His words remind us that even when we cannot understand why, we can find comfort in believing Marley is safe in God’s loving arms.

Marley was deeply loved and will forever be cherished by her parents, Andrea and Mitchell; her brothers, Jacob and Jack; her grandparents, Gary (Marsha), Julie, and Chris (Chris); her great-grandmother, Evon; extended family, friends, and all who were blessed to know her.

She was preceded in death by her grandpa, Larry; great-grandfathers, Rod and Robert; and great-grandmothers, Joan and Marcie.

She was here for only a little while, but she changed our world forever.

We will carry you in every heartbeat, find you in the little things, love you through every tomorrow, and miss you until the day we hold you in our arms again.

Forever our baby Moogers. Forever our sunshine. Forever loved.
