I was shocked and heartbroken to learn of Marina's passing. I still can't grasp that she's gone. No more late night chats. No more plans for holiday get togethers. No more making dozens of cookies and paximathia. May you rest in peace, my friend. Your pain and suffering is no longer a concern for you. I shall miss you!
