Constance "Connie" Louise Marsh

Connie fell asleep in death on Saturday, November 22, 2025 at Sacred Heart Hospital in Spokane, WA. Connie was born in Wellsboro, PA on July 9, 1945 to Robert Henry & Edith Melvina Hackett. She was predeceased by her husband, Allen Marsh, as well as her parents and siblings Charles, Kenneth, Karl & Scott. Connie is survived by her sister Sharon (Lyle) Brothers in Elmira, NY and her children, Steven (Cindy) Evans in Ulster, PA, Linda (Gary) Curtis in Tucson AZ, and Tracy, Tim & John Evans in Elmira, NY. She is also survived by step-daughter, Lauri Marsh of Corning, NY. Her grandchildren are Lisa Smith of Horseheads, NY, Joshua (Breona) Evans of Bethel, OH, Bryanna Sharp of Corning, NY, Taylor (Josh) Petery of Utah, Skylar Boggs of Ohio, Daniel Evans of Towanda, PA, Lucaus Evans of Horseheads, NY as well as Penny, Corbin, Cynthia & Celine Inthavongsa of Ulster, PA. She has six great-grandchildren and many nieces and nephews whom she dearly loved as well. Connie also had many granddogs over the years that she enjoyed and loved. John always honored her by giving every one of them her middle name "Louise."

Connie's children were especially proud of her determination and accomplishments. She earned her GED in 1982 at age 37, then went on to become an LPN in December 1983. She later became certified in foot reflexology and often practiced on family and friends.

Connie and Al expanded their home in Millport to create an assisted living home, where they lovingly cared for many elderly ones in their later years. She later worked at Lakeside Nursing Home in Ithaca, and her compassion as a nurse gave her life deep meaning and purpose. She held a special gift for comforting people in their final days, offering both skill and genuine kindness. Connie was also one of Jehovah's Witnesses, and her faith and her hope for the future were a constant source of strength.

Connie had a true heart for hospitality. She loved hosting get-togethers, and cooking for family and friends. Many cherished memories were made at Seneca Lake on Al's family property, where loved ones gathered and went fishing, out on the boat, swimming, enjoyed campfires, shared meals and one another's company.

Connie's resilience, her generous spirit and her unforgettable laugh, one that could warm any heart, will be lovingly remembered by all who knew her.

Connie will be buried alongside her husband, Al, in the Seneca Union Cemetery (aka Valois Cemetery).

Family and friends are invited to attend her Celebration of Life at the Elmira Correctional Facility Employee Clubhouse, 1438 N. Hoffman St., in Elmira, NY 14902 on Saturday, June 13th, 2026 from 2 to 4 pm
