On November 22, 1956, Marie was united in marriage with Fred Nulle. She retired at that time. Marie and Fred lived on the Nulle farm for over 20 years, moving into town in 1974. During those years, they spent time in the winter in Arizona. Fred died in 1992 and Marie remained in their home several years before moving into the Terrace Apartments.
