I was so sorry to hear of Marion's passing. I met her several months ago at Harbor House when my mother moved there. She was a lovely person and will be missed.

Phil,

Steve and I are so sorry to hear about the passing of your wonderful mother. I’m sure she’s up there whipping up one of her favorite recipes. I glad to hear that she was able to go to lunch with one of her friends before passing on Sunday.

I met Marion when I worked at the Harbor House and always looked forward to our talks. She had a great spirit and enthusiasm.

She will be greatly missed.

All of us from the Kickham and the Grady family can only remember all the nice times and great fun we had with Marion and Del. My five children and Peggy and myself are so grateful to have known them so many years ago in Scituate. They were very special people. Paul l. Grady Sr.
