Marie Hauber Ross was the youngest child of William (Will) Frederick Hauber and Maude Estella Hutton Hauber of Allendale. She was born on November 23rd, 1914 and died June 12th, 2008 at Northwest Medical Center in Albany.
Marie grew up in Worth County, attended Amity elementary school southwest of Allendale, and high school in Grant City. She received a B.S. Degree in Education at Maryville Teacher’s College and Wilson Teacher’s College in Washington, DC. She completed post-graduate work at Northwest Missouri State, University of Missouri-Rolla, and other colleges.
On March 23rd, 1940 she married Charles Clayton Ross of Martinsville and from this union, three children were born: Charles Frederick Ross, Paul Franklin Ross, and Clella Mae (Ross) Goodwin.
Marie lived with Clayton on a farm south of Allendale which they owned and operated. Before her marriage, she taught in rural schools in Worth County including Dry, Freeland, and Allendale. After marriage, she taught elementary curriculum and also high school history and mathematics at Bethesda, MD, Grant City, Albany, Martinsville, and Stanberry, and then at Nocatee in the DeSoto, FL schools.
She was a member of the Denver United Methodist Church and the former Amity Farm Club.
Marie was a kind loving wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, aunt, cousin, and friend. She was loved and remembered by her students and peers in the schools where she taught. She always exemplified the discipline and attitude of a teacher as well as being a nurturing mother.
Our grief at her departure is relieved by the wonderful memories we have of her humility, kindness, charity, and love.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Clayton, her parents, and her brother, Paul Hauber. She is survived by her three children, seven grandchildren, and six great-grandchildren.
