Jenny,Phyllis, Stosh, Nancy and Family. I want you to know you are in my thoughts and prayers at this time and in the days ahead. When I had the opportunity to be in Marians company, I always enjoyed it, seems like we had some good conversations. She was a sweet lady to me and my family. Remember to lean on each other in the times ahead. God Bless.
