Read More	Marcia Karen Cogburn (Ewald) was born February 25, 1947 in North Platte, NE. She left this life on October 16, 2020 in her home in Holyoke, CO, with her husband, Steve, by her side. Marcia began her life with her twin sister, Martha, in Dickens, NE. Her father, Henry Ewald, and mother, Hazel Ewald (Smith), moved them from Dickens to Stoneham, CO, when they were small. Henry worked for Burlington Northern Railroad, so their lives were interesting, to say the least. She told stories of living in a boxcar in Stoneham for a time while her father worked the railroad. Marcia and her sister, Martha, started grade school in New Ramer and never missed a Sunday at the First Baptist Church in Sterling unless the weather prevented them from driving that far. Then, they would still go to services in Stoneham. She told many stories about catching lizards with her sister and turning them loose on people's porches (or in their houses). They rode bicycles down the cow trail to the pond or wandered down the bar ditch with their red wagon. Marcia was diagnosed with polio when she was a baby but never let it hold her back. She started walking when they said she could not and continued to strive even when the curvature of her spine said she should not. The Ewald family moved to Holyoke in 1960 and she started high school and graduated from high school in Holyoke. After high school, she worked for TRW in Ogallala, driving every day to work until one winter day when she went in circles on the Venango curve. She then went to work in several different restaurants in Holyoke, jobs she truly enjoyed. Marcia met her first husband, Larry Peckham, in Holyoke and they married in 1966. To this union were born two sons, Brent in 1967 and Todd Peckham in 1971. Marcia dearly loved her boys and she viewed raising them as one of the bright spots of her life. Marcia was a doer. She never left anything undone that could be completed. She loved working in her yard, cleaning her house and making sure everything was in its place. In 1983, she met the love of her life, Steve Cogburn. They married on March 2, 1984. Steve took her to the farm in 1984 and they stayed until 1985 when they moved back to Holyoke. She supported him in everything they did and worked as a Certified Nurses Aide for the local nursing home until her health began to fail her. Her back started to be an issue and she was never able to be employed again. She never quit; she never gave up. She would walk the neighborhood around her home and pick up the leaves and trash that would blow in. She was always there for her sister whenever she needed help. The one thing in the end that tormented her was that she could no longer rake leaves. Marcia died at home as she wished to do in the arms of her husband. She was preceded in death by her parents, Henry and Hazel; her former husband, Larry Peckham; brother-in-law, Jim Leibbrandt; and her father-in-law, Charles Cogburn. She is dearly missed by her husband, Steven Cogburn; sister, Martha Stoermer; sons, Brent Peckham and wife Sherrie, and Todd Peckham; sister-in-law, Diana Cogburn; sister and brother-in-law, Vicky and Chris Fillinger; sister-in-law, Kim Cogburn; and mother-in-law, Joan Cogburn; along with many friends, cousins and her special little dogs, Oso and Ariel. Services will be held at the First Baptist Church of Holyoke on Saturday October 24, 2020 with interment at Holyoke Memorial Park following the service. Cremation was chosen.
