Marianna was born on July 23, 1916 in Dubois, Idaho to John H. and Sara Ensz. She died on December 11, 2017 at 101 years of age at Sierra View Homes in Reedley. Beloved by her family, her many friends in Sierra View, her church community, and Reedley community, she will be deeply missed for her kindness, intelligent thoughtfulness and her ready, playful wit.
Marianna lived her rst years in the small, tight knit community in Idaho where a group of Mennonite families homesteaded. When Marianna was ve, her family moved to California. Marianna grew up in Visalia, and every Sunday the family traveled to the Reedley Mennonite Church, which became her home church for the rest of her life.
Marianna was valedictorian in her Visalia high school and graduated from Bethel College as an English major in 1937. She then attended Stanford University, followed by a year of teaching high school English and German.
At Bethel College Marianna invited a fellow student, Marden Habegger to a Sadie Hawkins Day event, and the relationship grew. ey married in Chicago on December 30, 1939, where Marden was attending medical school. In 1946 the family, now including their rst children, Alfred and Martha moved to Reedley, California which became her community for the rest of her life.
Marianna was a devoted and loving wife and mother of four children. She also played an active role in her community and church. She was president of her PTA, a deacon in her church, and a member of the Bethel College Board of Governors. Her love of literature led her to be an avid member of the Great Books Club. She was dedicated to peace and justice ideals and became an active member of the Reedley Peace Club from its inception.
Marianna and Marden opened their home to ve foreign students and Mennonite Central Committee volunteers from around the world for periods of several months to a year. In 1972 they spent a year in Kingston, Jamaica, in voluntary service at a medical clinic, an experience that Marianna called the highlight of their lives.
Marianna was predeceased by her husband, Marden Habegger in 2007 and her siblings, Elda Suderman, Elmer Ensz, and Harold Ensz. Marianna is survived by her sisters, Norma Jones and Adeline Sprunger, her children, Alfred of Lost Prairie, Oregon, Martha Lynne of Santa Rosa, CA, Valerie of Forestville, CA, and Eric of Lakeport, Ca., four grandchildren, Cybill Souza, Simon Habegger, Eliza Habegger, and Rita Mae Rodriguez plus seven great grandchildren and four great great grandchildren.
A burial service was held for the family, and
a public memorial will be held January 27, 2018, at 11:00 a.m. at the Reedley First Mennonite Church.
