The Wahkiakum County Eagle - Established as The Skamokawa Eagle in 1891

Marian Molly (Greene) Strong, 93, of Rosburg, passed away August 9, 2022 in Ocean Park, Washington.

She was born April 5, 1929 in Nisqually, Washington, to Esther Pearl Taylor. Her mother would marry Norman Greene, who adopted Marian as his own. She grew up an only child.

During her younger years, she worked in nursing in Glendale, Calif. She would later meet and marry Donald Strong, and together they had six children. She spent her children's youth as a home maker, lovingly caring for her husband and family, and would later work 10 years as head post mistress in Neah Bay.

Marian enjoyed crossword puzzles, jigsaw puzzles, traditional Indian beadwork, and crochet. She was so well known for her affinity for burning bacon, that she used it as a CB handle in the 70's "The Baconburner." She loved her Lord and was a devoted member of Bethel Assembly of God. Marian was dearly loved by all the staff at Golden Sands, and the family thanks them for their wonderful care of her while she was there.

Marian was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Donald Sr.; two sons, Delbert J. Strong II and Ronald L. Strong.

She is survived by her sons, Eugene C. “Gene” Strong of Rosburg, Curtis N. Strong of Lawton, OK, and Donald W. Strong Jr. of Neah Bay; one daughter, Violet M. Costa; and a multitude of precious grandchildren and great grandchildren.
