Marian M. Ridley, 75, of Lansing, NY, passed away Monday, January 19, 2026, after a brief fight with Plasma Cell Leukemia. She was born in Ithaca, NY, on May 4, 1950, daughter of the late Mary Huff and Robert Miccinatti. Marian worked alongside her husband, Donald J. Ridley, at Ridley's Book Bindery, the family business. She enjoyed hosting family gatherings, boating, relaxing on her beach, and most of all, spending time with family and friends. She was the most loving, compassionate, and selfless woman. Her laughter, sense of humor, love, and hugs will be missed by all who knew her.

She is survived by her daughter, Melissa Ridley; stepsons, Eric Ridley (Robin), Brian Ridley (Mary), and Scott Ridley (Sandy); her ten grandchildren; several great-grandchildren; and her sisters, Carrie Corbin (Gary) and Patricia Civiletto (Jim).
In keeping with Marian's wishes, there will be no public calling hours or services. Donations in her memory may be made to the charity of one's choice.
