Dearest Steven, Susan, Sharyn,

I send my deepest sympathy to all of you and all who loved your Mother. To me she was " Aunt Marie " and very special always in so many ways. I loved her very much, her special smile and kind ways and she always had so much class. I have many memories of her life that I will always hold on too. I find peace in knowing that she is now with dear "Uncle George " once again.

Love,
Diane Marie Bankert

Through Marie's friend, Marge Ware, I met Marie quite some time ago. We became instant friends. Not like Marge who travelled a lot with her, I had the opportunity to travel to Arizona with her and I have special memories of that trip. A definite spiritual experience. Also, when she would come home summers, in Cape Cod, a few of us always spent a weekend with her. She was a gracious hostess. We enjoyed much of the same things and loved the Lord. It was good to be with her as we discussed Him frequently. We will miss her beautiful smile and joyful personality.
