"Jon, Rob, Lee, Janine and all I'm sorry that I didn't know sooner but I just found out from Louise on Saturday that Marie had passed away. I know that you all realize what a special woman your mother was but I will tell you anyway. Although I didn't see her often enough, every time I did, from the time I was a child on, she lit up my life with her beauty, spirit and intellect. She loved each of you dearly and would report with affection and detail what was going on in your lives. I could go on and on but will spare you since I am sitting here with tears dripping from my eyes. I can only say that you all are very fortunate to be her "children" and I will always cherish my memories of my wonderful aunt Marie. Love, Eddie"
In loving memory of
A. Marie Robertson
