She worked as a domestic until she met William Grundhaus. They were married at St. Bernard's Rectory, Thief River Falls, on January 21, 1938. They raised six children in rural Thief River Falls.
Marceline loved homemaking, and was adept at all the domestic arts: gardening, cooking and canning, sewing, quilting, knitting and other crafts.

She attended Mass daily when possible and spent an hour weekly in adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. She also maintained strong friendships with the women in her neighborhood and was an active member of the Helperettes Club.
In 2006 she moved to the Summit Assisted Living Apartments of the Villa St. Vincent in Crookston and later into nursing care at the same facility.
