When my Mom was sick and losing her battle with Cancer, Marie came to see my Mom in my Mom’s final hours, Marie held me close almost like she was protecting me from what was to come, and recently at the graveside service for my grandmother in April 2014, Marie called out to me, she had not seen me in years but she knew me, she held her hand out to comfort me. I will never forget that, never forget such a kind and caring person.. Rest in Peace Marie.
