Marcella was a big part of my life when I was growing up. She would attend all of my sister's and my birthday parties with Nannie (Mary) and bring us gifts. We would visit her when we were at Nannie's house, go to church, etc. A kind and generous soul who will be greatly missed! My thoughts and prayers are with her family.
