Marcia Koch, age 75, went home to be with Jesus November 8, 2021. Marcia was born and raised in Mount Prospect, Illinois. She had wonderful memories of her hometown where her father was Chief of a police and her family was very active in the community.
She married Curtis Koch and stayed in Illinois where she lovingly raised her two children. Her faith was at the forefront of her life, she would often be heard singing hymns and playing the piano during family gatherings. In her later years, she was a caretaker to many people who praised her for the comfort and joy that she brought to them.
Marcia was preceded in death by her parents Newell and Willodean Esmond and her sister Beryl Slonecker. She will be fondly remembered by her brother Newell Esmond and forever missed by her son Damon (Jennifer) Koch and her daughter Colleen (Chad) Techtmann . Marcia was a proud Grandmother to Destiny (Brennan) Bowman, Josh, Kayla, Kristen, Jacob, Karlie, Meghan and a Great Grandmother to Marie and Ember.
A Celebration of Life will be planned in early spring.
In lieu of flowers please make a donation in her name to a religious establishment you hold dear to you.
