Obituary

Illinois. At her young age, her family moved to Miami, Florida, where she attended Southwest High School and Miami-Dade College. Marcia was a legal secretary for most of her life until she retired several years ago. She enjoyed her retirement years by traveling, taking many cruises and other trips with her best friend, Joanne. Together they explored the U.S. and cruised the oceans. Marcia had numerous friends in Georgia and across the U.S. who she loved and who are deeply saddened by her loss. Marcia also loved all the many dogs she and her husband cared for in her lifetime, primarily Schnauzers.
Tona Barnes, a fitness instructor at the gym in Marietta, Ga., where Ms. Sasser took classes, said she had brought the SilverSneakers members together. She maintained the group’s email list and, in 2016, after Ms. Barnes mused aloud about filming a class for YouTube, hired a videographer to make it a reality. The video has racked up nearly a million views — a response that surprised all those involved.
