To Marion's family and extended family I offer my deepest condolences. She has been a dear, close friend for 50 years. It's very hard to think that I won't be able to pick up the phone and call Marion for some sage advice. I will miss her terribly, as I know you all will too. She was a true matriarch for your entire family that she loved so much.
