Marcia Matheson Norris died early Thursday morning, February 20th, 2014 at Community Hospital in Monterey. Marcia had been suffering for the past eight years with dementia and died from complications of pneumonia. She was 74 years old.
Marcia was born on May 20, 1939 in Visalia, California, to Anna Matheson (born Anna Newell Maclachlan) and Stanley Theodore Matheson. A sister, Mary Ann Matheson, was born in 1944 in Carmel. Marcia moved to Pacific Grove as a young girl and spent most of her adult life on the Monterey Peninsula—living in Pacific Grove, Carmel and Big Sur.
Marcia graduated from Pacific Grove High School in 1957 and attended Monterey Peninsula College. She later earned her BA in English from the University of Alabama and her MA in speech pathology from San Jose State University.
Marcia was married to Edward Janney Norris in Chevy Chase, Maryland in 1959. A son, Geoffrey Allen Norris, was born in 1962 in San Jose. In 1964, Marcia and Ed moved to the Peninsula, as Ed received a teaching appointment in the English Department at Monterey Peninsula College.
A daughter, Mary Ann Norris, was born in 1965 at Community Hospital. Marcia and Ed raised their family in Carmel Highlands and later on the Big Sur Coast, near Garrapata Beach.
Marcia and Ed divorced in 1981 and Marcia spent the next decades of her life focusing on her professional career. Marcia was a pioneer in the field of assistive technologies for people with disabilities throughout the state of California in the community college system. She transformed many lives through her unique ability to marry technical expertise with human compassion.
Marcia was passionate about language, books, music, spiritual matters, and family. She was President of the Carmel Music Society and an avid concert-goer.
Marcia is survived by her sister, son, daughter-in-law Lisa, daughter, son-in-law Oswald and six grandchildren: Rebecca Jean Norris, Audrey Anne Norris, Jack Rollin Norris of Pacific Grove, Oswald Paul Antoine Lares of Paris, Anna Andrea Lares and Antoine Edouard Lares of Los Angeles.
