Our thoughts and prayers are with each and everyone of you at this most difficult time.Remember God is our Comforter,our strength. Memories of Marian will last a lifetime.
Whenever we would join the Thorntons for their monthly breakfast at different eateries around town surronded by extended family and childhood friends from the West End.She showed an aura of pride and love for everyone present. She would always remind us that she was the only 'girl' in her family, meanwhile glancing at her brothers with pride.Marian loved "FAMILY".

On the Wings of Love,
Though your Mom is now an Angel,
When you need her,
She will come from far away,
All her love she'll bring to you,
On this, and everyday...
To the family of my "Other Mother" and My Mom's Best Friend
...They are Together Again...
