It is with profound shock and unimaginable sorrow that we announce the passing of Marlene A. Petroski, 76, of Nanticoke, who left us unexpectedly on Monday, April 27, 2026 at Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center.

Early in life, Marlene worked at the General Cigar Plant and at Reilly Plating Company. For several years, she also was employed by City Cab Company and Barbara’s Custom Floral. She last worked with her daughter Carol, at Carol’s Floral and Gift in Nanticoke, helping in every aspect of the floral business, until her health no longer permitted.

She enjoyed watching TV, especially NASCAR, General Hospital and Grey’s Anatomy, working on puzzles and word finds, playing bingo at the Honeypot Fire Hall, and visits from family and friends.
