Marion C. Wheaton, age 89, peacefully rode her Harley Davidson into Heaven on August 13, 2020.
She was born in Newark, New York on October 26, 1930 to Donald S. and Bernice I. (Sherman) Cole of Port Gibson, New York. She is predeceased by her husband of 59 years, James Wheaton; her parents; brothers, Robert and William Cole; sisters, Eleanor Guchone and Phyllis Zeger.
Marion is survived by her daughters, Nancy and Diane Wheaton; sister, Barbara Paulick; brother, Paul Cole, Sr.; sister-in-law, June Abrams; many nieces and nephews.
Special thanks to her caregivers, Machel Shaffer and Kaitlyn Rood; and loving nieces, Cecile Bouwens and Trudi Cole.
Marion loved riding her Harley with the sidecar. She was a proud member of the Motor Maids of America, and a Lifetime Member of the American Motorcycle Association. She was also a longtime member of the "Wa-Co-Mo Pals" of the Wayne County Motorcycle Club, which was founded by her father.
She was a Co-Founder of the Wayne County Gem and Mineral Club. She served as Editor of their newsletter for many years. Marion and Jim volunteered many hours displaying and educating many (young and old) all around Wayne County and beyond with their mineral collection and Mastodon bones. She loved music and could play piano by ear. She loved her sweets! Marion will fondly be remembered by all the family for her many holiday pies.
Her Graveside Service will be held on Friday, August 21, 2020, at 11am at the East Palmyra Cemetery Whitbeck Road Palmyra, New York. We encourage anyone attending to ride their motorcycle if they wish, to honor Marion's love of riding.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks you to consider a contribution in her memory to the Wayne County Home Meal Service 165 East Union Street Suite 206 Newark, New York 14513. Our parents received wonderful support from this organization, assisting them to remain in their home. It's a service that is so very important to so many seniors.
