Marilyn June Nieder

Memorial services for Marilyn June Nieder, 71, Baldwin City, will be held on Thursday, October 20th, at The Lodge in Baldwin City from 3:30pm to 6:30pm. She passed on October 15, 2016, at Lawrence Memorial Hospital.

Marilyn was born August 6, 1945, the daughter of Cecil Puckett and Norma June Moore, in Lawrence, KS and graduated from Baldwin High School.

Marilyn loved to read in her garden every day; gardening and being outside was something she loved as well. She was very creative and loved doing crafts such as crocheting, cross-stitch, making blankets, and knitting; a lot of family members have something she has made. Another passion of Marilyn’s was making food: baking, cooking, canning, and anything else that involved food. She never wanted anyone to be hungry so she was always making food for everyone.

After returning to Kansas in 1999, she worked for Amarr Garage Doors but decided to finish out her working days preparing meals for the Baldwin Intermediate Center for the last 10 years.

She married James “Jim” Nieder in the Summer of 1971 at the Lutheran Church in Baldwin City, KS. She is survived by her husband, Jim; son, Jeff Johnson of Firestone, CO.; Son Jim and wife Terri Nieder of Woods Cross, UT.; Daughter Stephanie Nieder of Bountiful, UT.; Daughter Libby Nieder of Bountiful, UT.; Monte and wife Kristyn Nieder of Baldwin City, KS.; three grandkids: Savannah, Cody, and Cierra along with three great-grandkids: Dylan, Austin, and Maxine; sister Jan Harral, San Marcos, CA; brother Mike Puckett, AZ.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Jim Nieder to help with expenses:
