Marian was a graduate of the Columbus High School Class of 1945. She was married to Charles Metzger on September 12, 1950 in Columbus and the couple had three children. Marian worked for several Columbus attorneys including Lloyd Paust, George Bunsa and Behl & Lueders Law for 43 years, retiring in 2000.

She was an avid sports fan, especially Wisconsin sports and the Brewers. Marian was thoughtful of her family members and always worried for everyone. In the past few years, she enjoyed adult coloring books, traveling, trips to the casinos with friends and reading to pass the time. She was an active member of St. Jerome Catholic Church where she served on the Altar Society. Survivors include her son Robert (Mary) of Columbus; two daughters Joanne (Ronald) Waite of Waukesha and Donna (Randy) Retzlaff of Columbus; nine grandchildren; 13 great grandchildren; a sister-in-law Lucille Nowak of Beaver Dam; nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.
