Marlene Valerie Drake Obituary
We are sad to announce that, on May 1, 2026 we had to say goodbye to Marlene Valerie Drake (Hyde Park, New York). Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Marlene Valerie Drake to show support.
Though Marlene may no longer walk beside us, her memory will forever be enshrined in the fabric of the lives of those Marlene touched, a beacon of light guiding us through the darkness. In her absence, her spirit lives on — a gentle whisper in the breeze, a ray of sunlight on a cloudy day, a reminder that love knows no boundaries.
She was loved and cherished by many people including: her parents, George F. Grah Sr. and Marion R. Dean; her sons, David Seward and Keith Seward; and her significant other Robie Drake. She was also cherished by numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren, nephews and nieces.
