Memories & Candles

Marcie was the backbone of the most caring and loving family. She made sure everyone was treated fairly and welcomed in her family. I will miss our talks and checking in with each other. We had an unspoken love but we made sure each of us knew we truly cared about one another and I knew she cared about my children as her own. She will be greatly missed.

Kathy and Family,
Just wanted to let you know how sorry I am to hear of your mom's passing. I remember lots of good times at your house. I especially remember great times playing in your awesome basement! You all will be in my prayers.
