Beloved wife, mother and sister, Marlene Bronson, passed away on Sunday, June 8, 2025, in Bellingham, WA. She was 74 years old. Marlene was born in Bellingham to Merlin and Joyce (Kendall) Oiness and raised with her three siblings.

Marlene and Howard moved back to Bellingham in 1987 to raise their family. With two children, Marlene was a devoted stay at home mother until 1999. Then she went back to work at the Holiday Inn Express where she moved up the ladder, eventually becoming the Sales Manager.

She is survived by her husband of 48 years Howard Bronson; daughter Kelly (Mike) Villarreal; grandsons Colton, Lincoln, and Jude; son Derek Bronson; sister Kathy (Craig) Lind; brothers Mark (Kathy) Oiness and Steve Oiness.

A vibrant, happy person who loved children, Marlene will be sorely missed
