You are a wonderful lady. I loved sitting on your big old porch doing puzzles when it was raining outside. Those were some of my best memories and you were a great aunt always looking out for me. I love you and miss you.

My heart is with you all. What a wonderful woman! so much love and humor! I hold so many great memories in her home, even washing dishes has its own place in those memories! The time Doris and I decided to cut Melanie's bangs! And the time we made blueberry ice cream but did not mash up the blue berries such that it turned out to be vanilla ice cream with blueberry bullets! And through it all Marie smiled, laughed and hugged! So glad to have had those special times. Thank you all for sharing your beautiful mom! Ange
