Marie Dodd

Marie Dodd, 84, beloved mother, grandmother, and sister, passed away on August 3, 2025, in Terre Haute, Indiana, at the age of 84. She was born on March 2, 1941, in Ridge Farm, Illinois, to the late Gordan and Mary Virginia (Richardson) Adams. Marie's life was characterized by her unwavering commitment to her family and her vibrant personality.

Marie graduated from high school and carried that sense of achievement into every aspect of her life. Marie met the love of her life, Harvey, on a blind date arranged by her sister and his best friend. They had 53 years of marital bliss.

Professionally, Marie dedicated a significant portion of her life to caring for others. She worked as a Certified Nursing Assistant at Lee Allan Bryant Nursing Home, where her compassionate nature shone through in her interactions with residents and their families. She also devoted her time as a stay-at-home mother, nurturing her children with love and care. Later, she took on the role of Manager at a restaurant in Montezuma, Indiana, where her outgoing spirit and leadership skills left a lasting impact.

She had a passion for gardening, often spending hours cultivating her expansive garden and canning the produce for later enjoyment. Whether riding her four-wheeler or participating in gatherings with loved ones, Marie approached life with enthusiasm and joy.

Marie is survived by her daughters, Cheryll (Albert III) Supp and Patricia Harper; her son, Bruce Dodd; grandsons, Jordan (Andrea) Bayles and Isaac Buell; great granddaughter, Lucy; her sister, Joyce Rohr; and many nieces and nephews who will cherish her memory. She was preceded in death by her husband, Harvey Dodd, and her son, Randy Dodd, both of whom she missed dearly.

A graveside service to honor Marie will be held on August 8, 2025, at 2:00 PM at Thomas Cemetery in Cayuga, Indiana. Her family invites all who knew and loved Marie to join them in celebrating her incredible life. Marie Dodd will be remembered for her dedication to her family, her love for gardening, and her ability to bring joy to those around her. Her spirit will live on in the hearts of all who knew her.
