Adah Lee Dahmer-Marsh, age 81, was born on December 6, 1944, and passed away peacefully on February 6, 2026, surrounded by the love of her family and friends.
Adah was a woman of quiet strength, deep devotion, and gentle kindness. She found great joy in tending her garden, where flowers flourished under her loving care—much like the people in her life who were nurtured by her steady presence. Above all else, Adah loved her family. She often spoke of how proud she was of them, and nothing meant more to her than her daughter, Sheila.
Adah was a proud member of The Order of the Eastern Star and the National Home and Garden Club, organizations that reflected her commitment to fellowship, service, and beauty in everyday life. She also cherished her many years working at Kroger, where she built lasting friendships and retired with pride, carrying fond memories of both her work and coworkers.
She is survived by her beloved husband of 13 years, Jim Marsh; her daughter, Sheila Baugh (Rob); her stepsons, Randy Marsh and Matt Marsh; her granddaughter, Kiera Marsh; her cousin, Linda Mahoney and her best friend and former Kroger coworker, Joy Scott; and numerous nieces, nephews, extended family members, and friends who will miss her dearly.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Elbert and Lula Keilman; her husband, Lester Dahmer; and her sister, Nola Gail Schneider.
