She enjoyed hiking and long walks with her running club. Marcy looked forward every year to visit the family camp on Lake Winnipesaukee in Moultonborough, NH. She spent hours sitting on the dock, kayaking, swimming and relaxing with family and friends. She also had a special fondness for the ocean where she always felt free, renewed and ready to take on the world. Marcy was always reading and learning to further her career as a nurse so she could be a positive influence and teacher for her patients. Her family enjoyed attending Life Church and meeting the amazing people that shared similar interests. She truly believed in surrounding herself with good people. Marcy cherished all of her friendships, from her childhood and current besties, college buddies, fellow students, coworkers and running enthusiasts. She had a special place in her heart for each of them and never forgot the memories they had together. Marcy graduated from Laconia High School in 1997. After graduating with a degree from Keene State College, she moved to Seattle, WA, to pursue her career in business and sales.
