A DEATH
HAS OCCURRED
In loving memory of Marcella ‘Marcy’ Lee de la Vega (nee Prows), a cherished mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and friend. She passed away peacefully surrounded by her children at the age of 86 on July 23, 2024. Marcy was a dedicated and loving person who touched the lives of many with her warmth and kindness.
Marcy was a proud mother to her children, Nancy (Mike) Shular, Deborah (Rocky) Tekulve, William de la Vega, and Kenneth de la Vega. She found great joy in spending time with her grandchildren, Maria (Ron) Eskerden, Andrea (Devin) Spenny, Lauren Shular, Michael Shular, Will Tekulve, and Rory Tekulve, and great-grandchildren Willem Eskerden, Llewyn Eskerden, and June Spenny. She is also survived by her brother, Joseph Prows, with whom she held a close bond.
Marcy was preceded in death by her beloved husband, William A. de la Vega, parents Claude and Esther Prows, and sister, Joyce Hutchinson.
She will forever hold a special place in the hearts of those who loved her.

“Thoughts and prayers to the entire family. Bill shared some great stories of both his Mom and Dad while we were driving in Manchester, UK trying not to wreck our rental car. When not knowing someone directly I always have to rely on the kids that they have raised. I can’t think of a better son, brother, friend and human than Billy D. My sympathies, Jason Q.”
