Marguerite Hayner

Marguerite Hayner, age 78, passed away Friday, April 21, 2017 at her home in Dorset with her family by her side. She was born April 2, 1939 in Dilltown, PA to the late Benjamin and Geraldine Mack. Marguerite graduated from United High School in Indiana, PA before visiting her sister in the Cleveland area where she met and fell in love with her late husband, Richard A. Hayner. Together, they raised a large family with Marguerite as a devoted and nurturing mother to seven children. She also worked outside the home, retiring from Social Services in Cleveland and, later, from Ashtabula County Community Action where she oversaw the Meals-On-Wheels program out of the Jefferson location. Marguerite was truly passionate about her work but also enjoyed spending time outdoors, feeding the fish, hunting bargains at yard sales, caring for her pets, and, of course, being a grandmother and beloved matriarch to all of her loved ones.
