Marcia Cay O'Leary (Beasley), 70, of Lakeland, Florida, passed away on April 16, 2026, surrounded by her loving family.
Marcia was born on April 20, 1955, in Denver, Colorado, to Max and Jane Beasley. She was raised in Greenfield, Ohio, where she graduated from McClain High School in 1973. After graduation, she moved to Washington, D.C., where she worked for the FBI. During her time there, she met the love of her life, Patrick Tobin O'Leary. The two were married on July 7, 1979, and shared many wonderful years together until his passing.

She is survived by her children: Brian (Rebecca), Maggie (Michael), and James; and her cherished grandchildren: Ashleigh, Tyla, Riley, Logan, Lilly, and Liam. She is also survived by her siblings Debbie, Susan, Kim (George), and Brett; her sister-in-law Katie (Phil); and several nieces and nephews, all of whom she loved very much.
Marcia was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Patrick O'Leary, and her parents, Max and Jane Beasley.
Marcia will be remembered for her love of family, her warmth, and the lasting impact she had on everyone who knew her. Her legacy lives on in the hearts of those who loved her.
