"To Marions' family ~ I was so saddened to see Marion's obituary in the paper last weekend. As a teacher at Preble I had the priviledge of working with her for 15 years and loved seeing her smiling face in the halls. She was a wonderful lady who showed kindness to everyone. I am so sorry for your loss and am sure that you have many great memories of her. Kristin Kreuser "

Tributes
"To Marion's family - you have my deepest sympathy. Marion was truly a wonderful kind-hearted person. I worked with her at Preble and enjoyed every minute I got to chat with her. She is the person who taught me how to play Soduko when she was about 80. What a gift to have lived so long & have touched so many lives. As the students at Preble would say, Rest In Peace, Grandma."
"Karen- My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this trying time. "
"Marion's family....you have our heartfelt sympathy. She was a wonderful lady, such patience, wit, quiet elegance. I was lucky to have worked with her at Preble & everyone loved her. May all your good memories help ease the pain of her death."
"Dear Marion Piehl Family, deepest sympathy on your loss. Marion was a GREAT lady. She exhibited nothing but class and kindness over the years to all who knew her at Preble. I feel fortunate to have been one of those people. Marion, thanks for the chocolate chip cookies and your constant concern - what a gem you were for us. You reminded me so much of my own mother - we love you and you will always be in our thoughts and prayers. Jack Drankoff - Retired Preble Teacher and Coach"
"Family of Marion, I was saddened to see her obituary in the paper Saturday. I worked at Preble as an ED teacher and later as a science teacher, and talked with her often. She was positive, spoke well of everyone, and looked at life in such a good way. She saw the best in everyone & even the "troublesome" kids never gave Marion trouble, as they knew she saw them as good kids. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Su Staron"
