How fitting it is that Marian would leave her beloved place on this earth to join her Lord and Savior at Christmas. We have looked over one another 35 years of being neighbors. The light in her window has always warmed my heart and the pleasure of knowing her will continue to comfort my spirit until we meet again. Merry Christmas, Marian.
We were so sorry to hear of Marian's passing. We can take comfort in knowing she is in Heaven with God and is reunited with Oren. It was on honor and pleasure to get to know her through the church. She was a very sweet lady who always had a smile and kind word for everyone. She will be greatly missed.
