Marion Lenore Pomeroy
Marion Lenore Pomeroy, age 84, passed away peacefully on June 27, 2025, at University Hospitals Geauga Medical Center.
Marion was born to Claude and Jessie (nee Semple) Brown on July 12, 1940, in Cleveland, and grew up in Euclid.
It wasn’t until she married Ronald “Ron” Pomeroy on June 16, 1962, that she truly found her purpose and the life that brought her joy. After moving to Thompson Township, Marion devoted herself completely to being a loving wife, mother and eventually grandmother and great-grandmother. Ron, her beloved husband of more than 60 years, preceded her in death earlier this year on Jan. 28, 2025.
Marion’s world was her family. She didn’t need big social circles or elaborate hobbies—her happiness came from being at home, quietly loving and caring for those closest to her. She was a true homebody, happiest in the comfort of her surroundings, whether she was cooking a simple meal, folding laundry with care or planting flowers in her garden. Every corner of her home reflected her gentle spirit and deep devotion.
She gave selflessly, loved deeply and asked for little in return. Her greatest joy was simply knowing her family was happy, that they felt surrounded by love and knew they were being well cared for. She had a soft spot for animals and treated her pets like cherished members of the family.
She will be greatly missed by her daughter, Carrie Grantham; and her son, Scott (Tracy) Pomeroy; grandchildren Perry (Danielle) Pomeroy, Tyler McCord, Rhiannon Pomeroy and Paul Beals; and great-grandchildren, Lola and Josie.
She is preceded in death by her husband, Ron; parents; brother, Roger Brown; and son-in-law, John Grantham.
In keeping with Marion’s quiet and private nature, no public services will be held.
Her family finds peace in knowing she is now back with Ron and that her gentle love continues to surround them.
The family suggest in Marion’s memory, donations may be made to Kathy Deptola Animal Rescue, P.O. Box 132, E. Claridon, OH 44033—an organization that reflects her lifelong love for animals.
Arrangements have been entrusted to Burr Funeral Home and Cremation Service in Chardon. Condolences and memories may be shared online at www.burrservice.com.
