I love Marlena. Although she is physically gone, she lives in my heart. I miss her high pitch giggle and laugh when she would say Auntie Vada. Marlena loved her daughter Hadara. She was so proud of her and kept me informed of all her milestones. She is still there in our hearts. May her daughter and all her loved ones find peace and the legacy she left us with, which is love and tenacity. Love...Auntie Vada
