Dave & Family,
There are many "beginnings" to all of our families, and one we will always remember is our "Earl Court " beginning! As young families we shared many memories with the children growing up and our adult fun. Marianne's passing brings many of these back as we would hope she would like. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

What made Marianne so remarkable was that she was always by your side, always there to support you especially when you where a Chief and as a Commissioner. This is what I admired most about her.
