Marlowe was so loved and was so dedicated to her family. She enjoyed gardening and beautiful flowers, and the beauty of all nature. She was an avid reader, enjoyed playing her piano, loved to cook for her family, and loved to work word puzzles and anything Elvis. She was always interested in others and lent her ear to anyone who needed to talk. She would always give wisdom in her quiet way. She loved children and they all loved “WoWo”. She would spend hours playing with all the children in the family, and always echoed the words of her mother – “Time spent with children is never wasted time”.

Surviving is her daughter and son-in-law, Jennifer Jones Calcutt and Randall Lee Calcutt, Jr.; two grandsons, Aiden Lawrence Jones Calcutt and Wyatt Randall Calcutt; brother, Douglas N. Faulkenberry; two sisters, Nell F. Robinson and Vivian F. Chapman; four nieces, Lauren Faulkenberry, Anna R.
