Marilyn, there are not enough words to fully express the sadness we feel at your passing; a light has gone out on earth, but will now shine brightly above us all.

I will forever be reminded of your kindness and joyfulness, such generosity you showed everyone - it was my honor and pleasure to work with you at OMCE.
