Marie-R
Marie Louise Curlee Richter of Port O’Connor, TX went peacefully to live with Jesus on January 17, 2015. She was preceded in death by her parents Bert and Mattie Curlee, her husband Lee Richter and grandson Ronnie Richter.

She is survived by her daughter, Leah Richter-Griffin and husband Ken of Port O’Connor, Robert Richter and wife Pennie of Covington GA and Mark Richter and wife Autumn of Mt. Belvieu, TX; sister Dorothy Dean and husband Tommy of Silsbee, TX; 19 grandchildren, 6 great grandchildren including Bryan Richter and his wife Misty of Port O’Connor, 2 great-great grandchildren, Christopher Richter and Brooklyn Redmond of Port O’Connor and many nieces, nephews and cousins.

Marie and her husband Lee owned Pasadena Outboard Store in Pasadena, TX for over 30 years and later moved to Port O’Connor and opened Port O’Connor Marine. She was a Director of the Port O’Connor Chamber of Commerce for 30 years, Woman of the Year of the American Business Women’s Association, member of the Port O’Connor Ladies Service Club and attended the First Baptist Church of Port O’Connor.

She was a loyal, caring person to her friends and family. She enjoyed attending the Senior Citizen luncheons and playing bingo afterwards. She lived and died with loyalty, dignity, faith and courage. We will treasure every memory and moment she gave us in her life. She will be in our hearts forever.

Special thanks to her caregiver and friend Mary Gonzales of Port O’Connor who spoiled her daily!

A private graveside service will be held in Houston at a later date. A Celebration of her life was held Monday, January 26, 2015 at the First Baptist Church in Port O’Connor with fellowship following.

In lieu of flowers donations can be sent to the Port O’Connor Friends of the Library or EMS.

So sorry you lost Marie, she was a jolly, funny lady and I liked her very much. She and Clyde were two Edna oldtimers. They both lived a long happy life. condloences
