Biography:

Waterville - Emily Marchesi passed away on May 15, 2023. She is survived by her son Jeremiah, her parents, Peter and Robin, her sister, Katie, her brothers, Nick and Vinny, her sister in law, Nicole, her grandmother Gail, her grandfather Vincent, her niece Harper, her aunts and uncles, and two of her dearest friends, Sam and Kelly. Emily’s passing was unexpected and left no time for goodbyes. Those who loved her are grieving her loss and praying that she rest in eternal peace.

Emily had only recently graduated from KVCC with her degree in culinary arts and was so excited to begin her new job at a restaurant here in Maine. Her achievements were earned under some of the most difficult circumstances. She was so proud of what she had done, and her family was too. In her short life Emily showed us not only how to conquer indescribable challenges, but how to do so with true grace, love, and compassion.

Emily’s greatest joy is her son Jeremiah. She was his angel, and he was hers. Her love for him was unmatched by any other.

Our grief is not for ourselves but for Emily. We will let her be the beacon that allows joy to emerge from our grief, and that shows us light from within the darkness. We trust that God needed her more than even we did.

To all of those who have shared in our grief we are so grateful. Her family and close friends will say goodbye to her privately, and a ceremony celebrating Emily’s short but beautiful life will take place in the coming months.
