About 17 years ago as a young mother I began working the St. Luke Christmas Store. A wonderful, caring woman had the same first name as my daughter and I enjoyed her smile, her love for the Lord and the people she worked with. This of course, was Marie. I always looked forward to seeing her over the years and was saddened when her health became such she was unable to continue serving the stores in December. On occasion I would see her and enjoy the opportunity I had to once again 'touch base' with her and her family. My prayers go with you at your loss but I know she is safely in the hands of the Lord whom she served. Diane Peil
