Sorry to hear about Aunt Marlene. Tried calling but no answer. Tablet had this notice about her passing. Had not seen her for years,but did talk to her. Grandma used to go to her house and take me with when Joe and Debbie were little. I knew she wasn't well from our last conversation. God be with Joe and Debbie.

Grandpa Ed, Cole and Grandma Marlene-A Thanksgiving at Springcreek.
