Dear Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. My prayers are and will be continuous.
From the first day I met Marlene she was always smiling and just chattering away to her hearts desire!
The kids were getting their softball and t-ball pictures that day at Triton last year. I will never forget her warmth and that loud voice at the softball and t-ball games as she cheered on those grandchildren!
Proud Proud Lady will be missed so much!
Sincerely,
Marie

My deepest sympathy to your family.
Marlene was my sorority sister for a short while and I remember her as
always happy, smiling and eager to help with any of the charity projects we were involved in at the time, or any of the fund raisers we would be working on at the time. She will greatly missed.
