~Marline Heath~


Lillian Marline Heath peacefully walked through heaven's gate on May 2nd after a very brief battle with cancer. She was at home in Lake Wildwood, surrounded by her loving family. She was 73.
Marline married Vern Heath in 1959. They moved to Santa Cruz in 1969 where they raised their 2 children, Julie Heath Johnson of Lake Wildwood and Matthew Heath of Santa Barbara. Marline left her career as a dental assistant to raise her family.


Marline loved life! She enjoyed traveling her husband, music, gardening, going to Curves, and spending time with her family and friends. She had a way of profoundly touching all who knew her. She especially cherished all the time spent with her five grandchildren, Britney, Hunter and Hannah Heath and Caitlin and Ava Johnson. Her family was her joy. She had a deep spiritual life which she instilled in both her children and grandchildren. Marline was much loved and will be greatly missed by all who knew her.


She is survived by her husband of 50 years, Vern, her children Julie Heath(Matt) Johnson of Lake Wildwood; son Matthew Heath of Santa Barbara; daughter Melinda (Carl) Wilson of Grants Pass, OR; sister LaVonne Harrison of Napa; brother Roy Gregg of Richmond; grandchildren, Britney, Hunter, Hannah, Caitlin and Ava, two great grandchildren, Peyton and Abbigal and numerous nieces and nephews.
