Marcia K. Eblin, age 71, a lifelong resident of Marion, died peacefully Monday evening, August 5, 2013, at her home surrounded by her loving family following an extended illness.
On July 26, 1942, Marcia was born in Marion County, one of four children of the late Glenn and Clara Mae (Noblet) White. She graduated from Marion Harding High School.
