She was born Greta Elaine Norton May 10, 1951, to Pauline Elizabeth Moore in Hillsdale, Michigan. She resided in Naples, Idaho since 1970. She was married to Leon Marcy in 1973. She had four children.

Greta was a great inspiration as a crafter and artist. Her paintings won blue ribbons at the Boundary County Fair. She was known as the “Craft Queen” for her remarkable handmade cards. She touched the lives of many Sandpoint residents when she worked at the Panhandle Credit Union.

She shared her love of cooking with her children and grandchildren. She enjoyed camping, fishing, riding the four-wheeler, dancing to music at the fire pit, huckleberrying and landscaping.

She was a great friend and loved by all.

Her favorite saying was “While we’re here we are always walking with people and when we pass we always follow someone too.”

She is survived by her spouse Leon Marcy, her children Tonya Cook, Lenny Ramey, Paul Ramey, and Brian Marcy, her eight grandchildren and her one great grandchild, her stepfather Kennison Norton, uncle Paul Moore and Jauretta Moore, two aunts on her mother’s side, uncle Don Kramer, uncle Merrill and wife Betty Marcy, uncle Don Marcy, and many cousins.
