Bonnie & Frank, I am so sorry for your loss. I worked with Frank during the Y2K years. I remember a funny story but more, the wonderful care she gave your children. You were blessed to have had her in your life.

My heart broke when I heard of the passing of this wonderful person who I called my "Dear Friend" We were neighbors in Unionville and always stayed in touch. Some how time slipped away and we never had our lunch we planned for the nicer weather. Marion was so very proud of her daughers, grandchildern and great grand childern. She was a wonderful "adopted" mimi to my two sons!! Until we meet again my dear friend, I know you are home with Bill and your son!!
