Sorrow is hard, our many memories help us cope. Remembering you both and all your extended families and friends who were so very close to precious Aunt Marion, such a Peach. I will so miss the 2 hour phone calls I had with her where we reminisced the good times and shared what we've learned and appreciated in life, yes and the Novenas and candles - I felt the strength and clarity from them. What a Blessing to have her in my life. Love You

I am glad we were able to talk,, even though it was short, last summer. We'll miss you until we meet again. The bible says in (2 Samuel 12:23) "We'll recognize our loved ones in heaven"
