Marilyn A. Cozzie

Marilyn A. (nee Gerasch) Cozzie, age 85, passed away at her home in New Lenox on Friday, June 24, 2022.
She is survived by her loving children, Cindy (late William) Schubert, Glen (Diane) Cozzie, and Janet (Alfredo) Contreras; grandchildren, William (Katie) Schubert, Ryan Schubert, John (Tina) McCaffrey, James (Kristina) Cozzie, Vincent Contreras, and Kevin Contreras; numerous great-grandchildren and a great great-grandchild; siblings, Allen Gerasch; and numerous nieces and nephews.

She will be remembered for her wonderful cooking and baking skills, and she found great enjoyment in cooking for everyone on Thanksgiving.
