Marian Davison Obituary

ARCANUM - Marian A. Davison 96, was welcomed to her eternal home by her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on July 11, 2025, where she was reunited with her husband Robert J. Davison. Her heart and home were always filled with music because God had blessed Marian with a beautiful soprano singing voice which she always used to glorify Him. Marian loved to love people. Her hands were rarely still as she was always playing piano, sewing or cooking something in her free time. She also shared her love of making her homemade Christmas rolls with her daughters, granddaughter and great granddaughters.

Marian leaves behind her daughters and their families: Donna (Cameron) Mason and Nancy (Steve) Hangen. Grandchildren: Craig (Kathryn), Joshua (Jaclyn) and Philip Mason; Stacy (Joe) Worrell, Dave (Trisha), and Joel (Bethany Lam) Hangen. Great grandchildren Cadence, Keean, Owen and Ethan Mason; Kaylee, Lexi Worrell, Ethan and Kyle Hangen.

Marian's family is very grateful for the great relationships that Marian developed with the residents and staff at Hearth & Home of Vandalia as well as the Day City Hospice team.

There will be a graveside service for family at Ithaca Cemetery.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

I will always remember Marian as my neighbor, our school secretary, and the soloist at my wedding. She was a wonderful Christian role model for me too. She and Bob were a blessing to our neighborhood and in my life.
