Dear Marlene
I will miss you very much. I won't forget the good times we spent together and what a good cook you were, always giving Rico and I food when we came to visit. I will never forget your laugh and sense of humor, and the joy your presence brought everyone you were around. God bless you and keep you always.

Love your sister-in-law

May you and your family find comfort, and peace, while soothing your anxiety during this trying time. God's Word the Bible gives comfort at 2 Kings 20:5, where it says "..I have heard your prayer. I have seen your tears..." May the love of friendship,and family carry you through your grief. Remember to share kind, and loving memories with each other to bring a warm smile to your faces.
