Aunt Bootsie, as she was affectionately known, spent most of her years in Pittsburgh. She worked as a nurse’s aide at St. Francis Hospital in PGH until she retired. She was also a skilled seamstress and enjoyed working with various crafts.

Marshall; sisters-in-law: Betty Marshall, Janet Spells; stepdaughter: Joyce Breakbill; grandchildren: Valerie, Leo, Nadine, Yvette, and William Breakbill, extended family members, and a host of friends and caregivers.  She was preceded in death by her parents, husband Clarence Saunders, and only brother, Emmanuel Marshall, Sr.

A memorial service will be held at 11:00AM on Saturday April 20, 2024, in the Sample-O’Donnell Funeral Home 555 East State Street Sharon, PA 16146.
