    I sure miss Marion at church. I loved that she really enjoyed playing the piano. Her hats and her smile made me smile. Marion and I prayed for each other and I look forward to seeing her in glory. May you rest in peace with our Lord and Savior and one day we will see each other again.

  2. Our heart goes out to your family for your precious loss. I can’t take away your pain, tears and sadness. But please know we care.

  3. Please accept my sincere condolences on the loss of your beautiful mother and sister. When you see somebody that has been able to achieve such a long and full life as Marion has, one may wonder why does man have to die at all.
