Gene and family, I am so very sorry to hear of Marcia's passing. I had no idea she was ill. Marcia was such an incredible lady who endeared herself to my mother when they were kids and was there for my mom during her battles with cancer. I will always be thankful that my mom had Marcia as her best friend and will never forget the love and support she gave all of us. Her smile and contagious optimisim will be what I remember most about her. All of you are in my thoughts and prayers. Please let me know when the Celebration of her Life is.
Love, Laura Schexnayder
