"I loved Marion. She was always warm and friendly, asking about the kids and giving me hugs, and I?m so grateful we became friends and family. I already miss her. I can hear her voice and it?s sad we won?t see her at church anymore. Eternal rest grant to her, Lord, and may your light shine upon her. ???"
In loving memory of
