Longtime Lido Shorian Marion "Chicky" Drost Dies


Marion "Chicky" Drost
A longtime friend and neighbor Marion "Chicky" Drost has died.  Drost, from Cleveland, Ohio, passed away on January 17, 2019.  She lived on 1177 Center Place in Lido Shores for some 20-years.
Drost's obituary is below, along with a condolence note from friend Christina Landry.

I am so sad to hear of Chicky's passing. She was a good friend for 20 years and neighbor. We attended so many cultural events in Sarasota together. I often called her our Meg Ryan lookalike. Chicky had the most beautiful smile and infectious laugh. She loved to entertain. I attended many Academy Award and Super Bowl parties at her home. And of course, her annual corn beef party; she had the corn beef flown in from Cleveland along with Draeger's hot fudge sauce! My daughter and I visited Chicky in Cleveland many years ago. She took us to The Music Hall of Fame.

I am so sorry for the loss of Chicky to her family. I will always have wonderful memories of our dear friend and miss you so much!

Christina Landry
