Marcia Lynne (Harris) Hart

The loving family of Marcia Lynne (Harris) Hart sadly announces her passing at the age of 73 on May 24th, 2023. Marcia was born February 25th, 1950, and grew up in San Pedro, California with her loving family; George W. Harris, Martha L. Harris and brother, Gregory W. Harris.

Marcia graduated San Pedro High School 1968 and moved to Modesto, Califoria to be a part of a Fashion Merchandising Program that Modesto Junior College offered while working at Dunlap's Department Store, where she was promoted to buyer in 1974. Marcia had an incredibly successful career as a department store buyer for ladies' better sportswear, including Liz Claiborne, at Dunlap's, then Hart's San Jose, ending at Gottschalks in Fresno. She was passionate about her career, and it gave her the chance to travel the world and make life-long friendships. While working out of Hart's in 1977, Marcia met the love of her life Brooke Hart and they married in 1979. Their lives were made a little sweeter with the birth of their adored only child, Alexandra, in 1988. After Gottschalks closed in 2009, Marcia worked for the Fresno County Library, Woodward branch, for several years. Upon retirement, they moved to Lompoc in 2017 where she enjoyed and was active in Lompoc's Historical Society, Alpha Club and Botanical Association.

Marcia was energetic and tenacious towards life, yet she also cherished the gentle, beautiful moments that life offered her.  We will remember her for her smile, kind heart and generous nature.  She is survived by husband Brooke Hart, daughter Alexandra Hart, son-in-law Chris Wallace, sweet cousins, dear friends and beloved kitties. Marcia will be greatly and forever missed by all those that love her.

Services will be held on Saturday, June 24th 10am at the Lompoc Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to Lompoc's Historical Society, P O Box 88, Lompoc CA 93438
