A graduate of Watertown High School class of 1940, she also attended Amesbury High School in Amesbury Massachusetts where she was a majorette. Marie was a supervisor for many years at B.F. Goodrich in Watertown, Massachusetts. After her divorce from Joseph Lambert, she married the love of her life Edward Kadehjian in 1962. They had many good years together traveling to Puerto Rico, Florida, and Hawaii.
