My son was dating my now daughter in law and Marie made me feel so welcomed and not so apprehensive. She always made people feel so important. She was a wonderful lady and will be missed. She was always thinking of others even when she did not feel well. She was truly an angel on Earth. She was loved dearly by me. I will miss her beautiful smile.
Deepest Sympathy Troy and family. Marie was a very special lady and I am honored for the times we shared together. Darl and I send our condolences. God Bless
My grandma had the biggest heart and she would light up any room when she’d walk in. I always loved being around her listening to her stories or even just cuddling on the couch watching soaps or cops . I will forever miss her. I love you Grandma Rest In Heaven
Although I never met your mom, I heard so many stories from both Connie and Lisa. I’m so very sorry you lost her, and I hope you can find peace and comfort from the people around you, and know I’m thinking of all your family. It’s so much harder to get through these days ahead of you. It’s a right of passage most of us go through, but I know you’ll survive. Take care.
My deepest sympathies to your family. Keeping all of you in Prayers as your grieving. God Bless you all.
