Marjeta Spehar

Spehar

Our beloved mother, Marjeta Spehar, passed away peacefully Monday, June 15, 2026, surrounded by her family. She was 78 years old.

Marjeta was the heart of our home — a source of unconditional love, wisdom, kindness and laughter. Throughout her prolonged battle with cancer, she touched and inspired so many with her strength, grit and unwavering optimism.

Marjeta found joy in caring for her vegetable garden and many flower beds and in preparing wonderful food for those she loved. She was a loved and cherished spouse that will be greatly missed. Her legacy will live on through her children and grandchildren, who hope to carry forward her courage, resilience and generous spirit.

Marjeta is survived by her spouse, Michael Spehar; her children, Anita Spehar and Robert Spehar; and her grandchildren, Nikolas and Daniella Pruitt.

She was preceded in death by Marta and Josef Jerebic.

Though our hearts are heavy, we are deeply grateful for the love, lessons and memories she leaves behind. Marjeta will be forever cherished, lovingly remembered and missed beyond measure.
