Marjorie Jeanne Fiely
Marjorie Jeanne (Leskowski) Fiely, 86, of Edmond, Oklahoma died April 19, 2023, at the Veraden Senior Living Facility in Edmond, Oklahoma.
Jeanne (she used her middle name) was born November 24, 1936, in Gary, Indiana. She married Robert Julius Fiely of Fort Recovery, Ohio on December 31, 1955. Bob was a high school teacher and basketball coach but when children came along Bob joined the Army and Jeanne became a military wife. They had five children, and when the kids were older Jeanne worked as a pharmacy technician at two VA hospitals. When Bob retired in 1990, they moved to Edmond to be closer to family. That's when they joined St. John the Baptist Catholic Church. Jeanne had a very special devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary. She led a rosary group at St. John's for many years. She prayed the rosary nearly every day of her life the past 30 years. She also volunteered in the church food pantry.
