My earliest memories go back to some birthday parties, then many family visits and picnics then a visit from Roberta when I was at DePauw.

Maire was a good and faithful friend to Julia - she visited mom even when mom no longer knew who Marie (and even she herself) was.

Mostly I remember Marie the past few years when she brought her tax work in. She was a real lady, always beautifully dressed. She would tell us about her arithritis and how she just got up and started moving and kept going. A real example to others.

Marie will be missed. She has completed her faith journey and is at home with her Savior and loved ones.

God bless you all

Nancy
