Barbara J. Marquis, 66, of Toledo, passed away peacefully on September 23, 2020 at her home surrounded by her family. Barb was born March 30, 1954 in Toledo to William and Margarite (Jay) Kelley. On January 27, 1973 Barb married the love of her life, Doug Marquis, in Toledo at Immaculate Conception Church.
Before retiring from Immaculate Conception Church in 2019 she worked at The Bridge Cafe, where she made many lifelong friends, and was always up for a cribbage game. In her free time, she enjoyed playing bingo, slot machines, cards, poker, going out to dinner, and traveling. Barb loved water and being in the sunshine.
