Marie Perfetti Aaron, 77, of Memphis, Tennessee, passed away on September 12, 2026. Born in Memphis on November 16, 1948, Marie lived a life marked by faith, hard work, and a deep love for her family.

In February 1972, she married William “Billy” Aaron. Billy preceded her in death in March 1991. In the years that followed, Marie carried forward with quiet strength. She worked at Kroger from 1991 to 2020 as a department manager.

Faith was a constant through every season of her life. In her earlier years she was a member of Whitten Memorial Church, and later she found comfort and fellowship through Bellevue Baptist Church’s online services. She also devoted herself to a Bible verse ministry, sharing Scripture with a faithful heart.

Above all, Marie’s greatest joy was her grandchildren. They were the light of her life, and she loved them all without measure.

Marie is survived by her son, Jason Aaron; her stepson, Will Aaron; her stepdaughter, Bonnie Soldania; her grandchildren, Taylor Aaron, Jase Aaron, Presley Aaron, Justin Aaron, Chase Aaron, Adley Aaron, Samantha Brown, and Cole Gibson; and her brothers, Larry Perfetti and Mitch Perfetti.

She will be remembered for her love of family, her steadfast faith, and the gentle way she pointed others toward God’s Word.

A private family burial will be held on Monday, September 21, 2026, at Memphis Memory Gardens, 6444 Raleigh Lagrange Road, Memphis, Tennessee. In lieu of flowers, the family invites remembrance of Marie through prayer, and the love she so freely gave.
