Marguerite Mary Delhey

Marguerite “Marge” Mary Delhey, age 96, of Saline, Michigan, passed away peacefully on Friday, March 6, 2026, at Caretel Inns of Brighton.

Born on November 26, 1929, in Framingham, Massachusetts, to Angelo and Mary (Grelotti) Brovelli, Marge earned her nursing degree from Massachusetts General Hospital. She intended to travel the country after graduation, but her first stop at the University of Michigan Hospital changed everything when she met the love of her life, William F. Delhey. They married on September 26, 1956, settled in Saline, and raised four children together: Jim (Lori) Delhey, Karen (Michael Thomas) Delhey, Diane Delhey, and Thomas (Alexandra Aikens, fiancée, and her daughters Audrey and Vivian Aikens) Delhey.

Marge was an active member of the Saline Hospital Auxiliary and Saline Social Services. She cherished time with family, traveled extensively on cruises and trips with relatives, cousins, friends, and the Brecon group, and delighted in games of bridge, euchre, and dominos, as well as hosting lively parties in her home. She rarely turned down an invitation to gather with those she loved.

In addition to her children, Marge is survived by six grandchildren: Leanna Delhey, Amanda (Andrew) Klinkman, Mitchell and Miranda Thomas, Bradley (Morgan) Delhey, and Kyle Delhey; four great-grandchildren: Abigail Pollard, Nolan and Mara Klinkman, and Parker Delhey; two nieces, a nephew, two great-nieces, and many cousins. She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband William, and her sister and brother-in-law, Joan and Gordon Hunt.
