Marvel Louise Lewis, 81, of Dresden, Ohio, passed away peacefully on May 3, 2026, at Altercare Newark North. She was born on December 13, 1944, in Coshocton, Ohio, to the late Frank and Margaret (Luikart) Tidball.

Marvel devoted much of her life to caring for her family, embodying the love, strength, and steady support of a dedicated wife and mother. She worked as a bank teller and accounts payable/receivable clerk in Maryland, and in Colorado as a cashier, where her warm smile brightened customers’ days.

She found joy in life’s simple pleasures- caring for her beloved cats; enjoying sunny days at the pool or beach; and baking her famous homemade pies, which were loved by family and friends alike.

Marvel is survived by her daughters, Debbie Lewis and Diane Cecil and her husband, W. Scott Cecil; her cherished granddaughter, Katelyn Helene Cecil; and her loving brother, James “Jim” Tidball.

Along with her parents she is preceded in death by her sister-in-law, Irene Tidball.

Friends may call at the Miller Funeral Home, 639 Main St., Coshocton, OH 43812 on Thursday, May 14, 2026, from 10:00am-11:00am with funeral services beginning at 11:00am with Pastor Lloyd Tenney officiating. Burial will follow at Coshocton County Memory Gardens. An online memorial is located at www.themillerfuneralhome.com.
