Aunt Marion was my Great Grandmother's child hood friend. They grew up together as sisters. My father always known her at aunt Marion, and I have always known her as Aunt Marion. She was an incredible lady. I remember as a child in the late 90's she came with my family on a trip to Costa Rica. She was an old woman hiking the Arenal Volcano! I was always impressed by her healthy and wit throughout my life. My parents have some of her painting she made. I'm sorry to have her gone now, she will always be remembered in our hearts.

I was fortunate to see Marion once a month for several years. Great conversation from a very wise woman. I was her exterminator and always looked forward to seeing her and will miss her dearly. My thoughts and prayers go out to Marion's family and friends. Peace be with you.

Oh Marion....how we will miss you. We will always treasure our lunch together at Via Mizner where you told tales of your days working on Worth Ave. You had an amazing rich and full life and encountered many interesting people on the way. To live independently until 102 years old is quite an accomplishment. It was a privilege and honor to be your friend and neighbor. Mike and Nancy
