Marlene was a wonderful woman. She was kind to everyone and loved her family and friends with all her heart. Most of all she loved God first and showed it every day. I admired her so much. Always had a smile for you even when she was in pain. I witnessed her bravery and strong will to please others. I will dearly miss her smile and our laughter together. She is with God now and I have no doubts about that. I pray for her family to be happy until they see her again. Knowing Marlene she has asked God to watch over each of you. God bless you. She will still be in our hearts and that makes me smile. Love to you kids. Rhonda
