CALLAHAN, Marian. Of Frederick MD, previously of Silver Spring, MD, passed away on August 2, 2025. She was the beloved wife of Edward Callahan and proud, loving mother of son Michael Callahan and niece Sara Hyler; and devoted confidant to many loving relatives and treasured friends.
Born and raised in Brooklyn, NY to the late Milton and Shirley (Berlin) Hyler. Graduate of: Brooklyn College, City University of New York, with a B.A. in English; graduate of Tufts University, MA with a M.A., in Sociology and Deviance; graduate of the Columbus School of Law, Catholic University with a J.D. degree. Marian worked for a number of state and federal agencies during her professional career including the Massachusetts Department of Corrections, the Massachusetts Parole Board, the National Institute of Corrections and finally, as an attorney, for over 30 years with the U.S. Bureau of Prisons.
Marian and Ed loved to travel – traveling to all 7 continents and nearly 100 countries. Marian enjoyed the ballet, reading and attending numerous book groups. Marian enjoyed sharing these passions with her family and friends.
Marian was adventurous, generous and admired by all who had the good fortune to know her. Marian lived with a twinkle in her eye and a spirit of playfulness. She wasn’t afraid to try new things. Her legacy is one of strength, kindness, humor, and unshakable love. Marian faced many health challenges in her later years, yet she remained resilient and lighthearted — always ready with a smile. Her spirit never dimmed, and her presence continued to brighten the lives of those around her.
