Marianna Kay Hagen

I will hold you in my heart until I can hold you again in Heaven

Marianna was born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio.  She had a very successful career with Kinney Shoes, Foot Locker and Finish Line.  She moved around with work, living in multiple states until they retired to Florida in 2019.  Marianna met the love of her life, LeAnn, in Northern Virginia and got married in 2017 on a lake in Ohio.  They had an intimate ceremony with family and friends around them.  She loved the beach, spending time with her family and friends and making people laugh.  But her most treasured loves were LeAnn and Oliver her golden doodle.    

Marianna had a rare gift for making people laugh and she was a friend to everyone she met.  With her outgoing personality, she was such a presence in every situation.  She loved to give unsolicited advice, but she meant it in the most loving way.

Marianna is survived by her wife, LeAnn, her four sisters Kathleen Pieper (Wayne), Michele Feldman, Angela Hagen, Rebecca Cheek (Greg), sister-in-law LuAnn Swonger (David), her niece Rachael Sigafoose (James), her nephew Adam Hagen-Stein (Justin), dear friend Beth Neuberger and many other family, friends and loved ones.

We ask that you remember her, not for the way her life ended, but for the way it was lived, and for the profound impact she had on the lives of those who had the pleasure of knowing her.

A Celebration of Life will be held Saturday October 4th at 1:00 at the Riverwood Activities Center, 4250 Riverwood Dr, Port Charlotte, FL 33953. Please come with your favorite memory of Marianna to share.
