Marion Elizabeth Billington

Marion Elizabeth Billington Marion Billington(Tucci) was born in Montclair, NJ, on 17AUG1951. Due to her father's job Marion was able to experience traveling and living in many states until finally settling in Orange, CA in 1968. Marion graduated from Orange High School. She then entered the convent to become a Nun. While at the convent she was attending classes at Goldenwest College majoring in English Literature. She then met her future husband and left the convent. Marion, as a single mother of 3, then worked multiple jobs to put herself through nursing school and became an Registered Nurse. Marion had a huge heart and only wanted to help every human she came in contact with. She worked numerous years at St. Joseph's hospital in Orange before moving on to spend years working with Hospice and the AIDS Foundation as an RN. She didn’t pick a nursing career for money, she truly cared for her patients. She became their friend, and considered them her friend until the very end. Marion was a loving person through and through. She was a mom of 3, a grandma to 6, and a great-grandmother of 2. She was quirky, kind, caring, a peace maker, and thoughtful. She took her time to make all of us feel special and loved in our own ways, even in the smallest of ways. She always left the door open to anyone, and became a second mother to her kid’s friends and viewed them as her own. You could tell her anything, and she never judged, never thought twice when you told her something crazy, she embraced everyone as they are and loved them for it. She took that love for others until even after she passed, donating her organs so others can still have a chance at life. Marion was a supermom, a superhuman. Someone we all wish we could strive to be like. Marion is survived by her sons Craig Billington, Danny Billington, and her daughter Rita Olson. Her grandchildren Frankie Dyer, Shawn Do, Maili Do, Vincent Billington, Liam Billington, and Tessa Billington. She also has 2 great-grandchildren and 3 siblings. The family is taking donations to cover afterlife services. https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-marions-family-with-expenses?member=15334155&sharetype=teams&utm_campaign=p_na+share-sheet&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_source=customer
