My deepest sympathy to the family.
When I think of Marcella I have so many good memories and laughs. I also have lots of good memories of the family. Marcella gave me so much good advice and help at the hospital. She was so dependable and knowledgeable and so good to the patients.

Such special Aunts. I can't believe you both went home so closely together and yet it all makes sense. You were so good to my Mom and Dad and I know Dad thought so much of his sisters. Thank you for wonderful memories. Until we meet again, please give Mom and Dad a kiss from me. Love you, Lori

Your Mom always had a warm smile and kind greeting at the Methodist church when she passed out the Sunday bulletins. She also delighted in cutting the desserts for various activities at the church. You will miss her and her sister, for sure,but now she has been healed of her illnesses. She has left wonderful memories for you to cherish.
