It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Marlene Saltmarsh, a beacon of light in the lives of many. Marlene was born on March 15, 1956, and while her time with us was cut short, her impact on those who knew her will resonate eternally. As Maya Angelou once wrote, "People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." In the case of Marlene, her kindness and radiant spirit touched countless hearts, leaving a lasting imprint.

Her absence leaves a void in our hearts, but her memories and the lessons she imparted will continue to guide us. She was a testament to the power of love, kindness, and goodwill. Her life was a tapestry of quiet strength, compassion, and an unwavering dedication to those she held dear.

A Committal Service will be held on Thursday, November 20, 2025, at 10:00 AM, at Oak Grove Cemetery, 765 Prospect Street, Fall River, Massachusetts, 02720.

We invite all who knew and loved Marlene to join us in celebrating her remarkable life.

In remembrance of Marlene, we encourage all who knew her to share their memories and upload photos to her memorial page. These cherished reminiscences will serve as a testament to a life lived with love, grace, and unwavering kindness.

Services are humbly entrusted into the care of Southcoast Funeral Homes at Ferreira Chapel "Celebrating A Life Well Lived"
