Marlene was the first person I met at my new job and she was warm and so easy to be around. We worked together for three years. One time at Christmas we went to the Baptist Church Dwntwn and it was wonderful. Best wishes to all those missing her.

Stephene, Al, Lisa, Buddy and Chelsea

My heart goes out to all of you. Marlene was such a special person and my dearest friend. She was one of the kindest people you would ever want to meet and will be missed by many. She had a special laugh that even when you were down her laughter would brighten your day and make you smile. She will be forever in our hearts.

My condolences and sympathy to you. I’m sure you will miss Marlene. She was a lovely person and when she touched someone in life, they remembered her always.

I worked with Marlene at the County for years. Not only was she a great and hard worker, she brought smiles and laughter into the workplace. I’m so thankful for those fond memories and fun times I had with her. She will always be in my mind and heart.

God Bless you all during these times.

It is with a sad heart that I write this. Marlene Wight was one of the finest individuals anyone could possibly know. She was kind, considerate, had a terrific sense of humor, was a very giving person and was a friend. She will absolutely be missed. Fortunately she will remain in our hearts and memories forever. Today is a sad day for those of us who knew her.
