Marina Micheli, 66, passed away on December 8, 2025, surrounded by her family. She was born on July 6, 1959, in New Brunswick, New Jersey.
She is survived by her loving children, Mikaela Adler and Carl Adler; her sisters Carla Draper, Rita Carrier, and Angela Micheli, as well as her nieces and nephews, and childhood best friend Laura Sperber. Marina is preceded in death by her mother Olimpia Micheli, father Annibale Micheli, and sister Marta Micheli.
Marina lived a life defined by strength, devotion, and an immeasurable capacity to love. Her greatest joy was her children, and she poured her heart into being a mother.
Marina also dedicated 43 years of her life to IBM. Her unwavering commitment was instrumental in transforming processes within the IBM Financing business. Her name resonated across IBM Financing— everyone knew and admired her. She was deeply loved and respected by colleagues and friends alike, and her absence will be profoundly felt.
Marina leaves behind a legacy of excellence, kindness, and inspiration that will endure for years to come.
