Marie Anotonieta Arocha Black (Olveda), age 77, of Kenosha, passed away on July 7th, 2023, at Aurora Medical Center in Kenosha. She was born on April 1st, 1946, in Mexico, to the late Ramon and Rosario (Arocha) Olveda. For many years, she was married to Bruce Brown Black until his passing. After moving from Mexico early in life, she lived in many parts of the country, including Racine, Whitewater, Door County, Phoenix, Las Vegas, and finally settling in the Kenosha area. She owned and operated many businesses throughout her life, retiring in 2006.
She was very active in her community, specifically the Hispanic community. She was constantly networking and helping many families and business owners in need. Most of all, she was a very devoted mother and wife and loved spending time with her family.
She is survived by her son Marco Black (Amy Huber), her son’s half-sister: Anne Black, and ex daughter-in-law Salena Gonzalez. She is preceded in death by her parents and husband.
The family would like to thank both the entire Hospice staff, and all the family and friends for their support along the way.

It was a pleasure caring for Marie the last couple years. She was so strong and such a kind heart. She always asked how my kids and myself were doing. We had great conversations. Marie, you will be missed. I’m blessed that she has crossed my path.
Salena Gonzalez says:
They say God only gives you one mother , he blessed me with two. I’ve known Marie since a teenager, she has been at all my major milestones of life. She had the kindest, most caring heart. She gave back to her community her whole life by volunteering. She always had a big, beautiful smile on her face. I know she is happy to be reunited with Bruce and that is comforting. I love you always, Marie. XOXO

Hey Marie, we met in 1st grade at St. Rose grade school. We had a great time confusing the dear Sisters of St. Dominic. We did grow up and ended up together at St. Catherine’s HS. We’ve seen each other a bit over the years and always ended up laughing.
I’m sending my sympathies to your son and other family members. May you rest in peace.
Italia Brewer Hoffman says:
I met Marie in Merced, California. She was my friend. She helped me find a room when I needed one because I had to find a place. She overheard me and said I have a room. She was my angel. I always missed her. My condolences to her family.
