I would like to express my sympathy at the passing of Marcelle. Marcelle and her husband Frank were good friends of my granparents, Jimmy and Isabelle Farrell, who passed in 1978 and 1987, respectively. I remember when I was a little girl, I would play "waitress" when Marcelle and "Dutch" would visit my grandparents to play cards. They were a delightful couple! I am sure Marcelle will be missed by all.
