On October 14,2023 Marlene Rose Haskins (née Coughlin) left this earth to join her angels in heaven, surrounded by her loving family for the big send off.
Marlene was predeceased by her mother Dorothy Hosick , her father Martin Coughlin and loving step father Herbert (Bert) Hosick; her son Jason and twin boys that God felt he needed more in heaven.
Marlene is survived by her loving children Bobby (Tina), Christine (Glen), Sue Anne (Andre) and Becky (Mike) along with a hockey teams worth of grandchildren and great grandchildren who were her pride and joy.
Marlene was known by so many as Mom or Nanny as she was that constant presence in so many lives. She was a block mom on Taylor Ave. to every kid that passed by or through her door. Her gift to this earth was her love and compassion.
In keeping with Marlene’s wishes, cremation has been arranged with Timiskaming Funeral Cooperative. She did not wish for a formal service. In lieu of flowers we encourage a donation of any kind be mailed to the Salvation Army (6 Sylvanite Ave., Kirkland Lake, ON P2N 2C7) or to the Cancer Society of Canada (https://cancer.ca/en/ 55 St. Clair Avenue West, Suite 300, Toronto, ON M4V 2Y7).

So sorry to hear of Marlene’s passing, she definitely was a beautiful person and always had the time to chat when would meet…we offer our sincere and heartfelt condolences and may the awesome memories of your Mom help during this difficult time…RIP Marlene
I’m deeply moved by Marlene’s passing. I have known Marlene since high school and we remained good friends throughout our entire lives. Although we were not visiting friends, never did we not exchange words to catch up on what was new in our lives when crossing paths. Our friendship was genuine and pleasant. I’ll miss her smile. Her struggle with cancer was epic. What a strong woman. Sometimes life is so unfair. I am glad her suffering is over, but, I simply wish she could have stayed with us longer. Rest easy Marlene.
So sorry for your loss. This lady was always kind to me and always greeted me with a smile. “Rest In Peace” Marlene
Until we meet again in paradise.
You will be missed.

My heart goes out to the family and close friends of Marlene. She truly was a kind sole and love deeply. She always looked for the best in all those she comes in contact with. If you were feeling down she always had a kind hug and sweet words that lifted you up, and she truly loved her family with her whole sole, and would do anything for them or for anyone who needed help. For all those who had the privilege of knowing Marlene, you will always have beautiful memories of her, take them and share them because that’s how she would want to be remembered. Love Phyllis Cholette.
Christine,Family and Friends..

So sorry to hear of Marlene’s passing. We went to Queen E together and reconnected on Facebook years later. She always had a smile on her face and will be missed. Rest in peace Marlene.
Since first meeting Marlene in girls army cadets and in later years at Robazzaa she was always friendly and helpful. Sorry to hear of her passing
Please accept our sincere condolences of the passing of Marlene. She was a kind hearted person, I knew that when we were students at KLCVI and her kind heart continued to grow as her family and extended family and friends continued to grow. Rest In Peace Marlene.

Your mother/grandmother always had a smile at Goldland's even if she had to holler at someone doing something there she was polite and kind. A genuine friendly person to talk to. Even though she could not do stairs she delivered with a smile. A genuine true person not someone trying to fake it. I know she had health issues but she always had time for others. I know she has made a difference in the world and hope this is helpful.
God Bless!!
Our deepest sympathy
I want to wish you my sincerest condolences for the loss of a beautiful human being both inside and out. Everyone who knew Marlene was a better person for it and it seems like everyone in KL has a wonderful thing to say or memory of Marlene that has a connection to her 'Motherly Instinct' with her community.
The world just got smaller with this beautiful soul gone, but I think the ones who are greeting her right now, are pretty happy to see her.
Our Heartfelt Sympathies,
Colleen and Bob Young.
May you rest in peace Marlene. You will forever be in my memory.
And I have the picture of my little Scout who I got from you many
years ago on my fridge . So you will never be out of my thoughts.
Sincere condolences to the entire Haskins Family, sorry for you loss.
Marlene was a wonderful lady, and a true fighter with unconditional love.
We will miss your smiling face.

Christine, Becky, Sue Anne and Bobby and grandchildren - sending my heart felt condolences to all during these difficult days. I remember your Mother/Grandmother with her cheerful hello and smile at Goldland and school days as I went to school with Becky. She was a regular at yard sales too and she was known by many. May she rest in peace.
our deepest condolances to the family and her friends Marlene was a wonderful lady to talk with always with a big smile she will be missed by all that knew her sending big hugs to the family
Marlene worked with me for many years at the Goldland and not a day went by she wasn’t helping someone out. She had the kindest, most generous heart and always took the time to chat to customers because she was genuinely interested in what they had to say. She always spoke of how proud she was of her children and grandchildren and she loved you all more than life itself. Matti, you were a friend for many years and you were always there for her when she needed you. My heart and prayers go out to you all. She will be missed.
I am sorry for your loss. Thinking of you at this difficult time.
Never saw Marlene without a smile and warm welcome. Never hear her complain. Never heard her be negative. She was a rare light. Always remembered
I am so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. Aunt Marlene was always so good to us. You are all in my prayers.
Much Love
You forgot her sister &2 brothers ....also pre deceased by brother Eric Anderson......RIP Marlene.....no more pain !!..she was a great person.
