We send our deepest condolences to Marion's family and close friends. As a little girl, I always viewed Marion as gracious, warm, lovely, and simply beautiful. In our last brief talk, we spoke of the beauty of the Balthazar cousins (of which my mother was a part). She leaves memories, her own indelible stamp, the dignity which is rarely seen today. Such a lady, such strength. With much love and sadness, Sherry and John Hansley (Shirley Balthazar's daughter)
