She was born 2 pounds 15 ounces on February 28, 1934 to Lucinda Harvey Charton and Charles Charton of Bolivar, Ohio. She was an only child but was blessed with many cousins which she remained close with through the years.
Marcia graduated from Bolivar High School and then took education classes at Kent State University which prepared her to establish the first preschool program in Bolivar.
She married Glen Huffman in 1955 and they raised three children. She was a devoted wife and mother   who dedicated her life to her family. Once her children started school, she became a teacher’s aide at Lincoln Way Elementary School. She loved working with the students and staff. Following retirement, Marcia enjoyed traveling with Glen, playing cards and rummikub, and spending time with family and friends.
