David Marion, age 76, of Port St. Lucie, Florida, passed away peacefully on April 17, 2025. He was born on September 11, 1948, in Hancock, Michigan, to the late Eugene Marion and Evelyn (Bartlett) Ellis.

David dedicated his career to helping others as a physical therapist, a profession he was deeply passionate about. His compassion, knowledge, and care touched the lives of countless patients over the years.

Outside of his professional life, Dave was an avid sports enthusiast. He especially enjoyed watching football and basketball, and he rarely missed a game. Whether cheering for his favorite teams or simply enjoying the camaraderie of watching sports, sports were a lifelong passion. Saturdays and Sundays in the fall were often spent in front of the TV watching both college and NFL games.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Vivian (née Schemitsch); his sons, Brian Marion, Chris Marion (Asia), and Aaron Marion; his daughter, Nicole Hedman (Mark); and his stepdaughters, Elizabeth (Ryan) Osler and Linda Lovitt. He was a proud grandfather to Ivy, Cree, Kai, and Savanna Marion; Nick and Matt Hedman; and step-grandchildren Reagan Osler and Brandon Lovitt.

David is also survived by his brothers, Gene Marion (Faye) and Greg Marion (Tana), and his sister, Leah (Tim) Mullendore. He was a cherished husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend who will be missed by all who knew and loved him.

A burial will be held at a later date.
