My cousin, Marlin, left me with so many special childhood memories. Walking to the Grand Theatre with my brothers and sisters and watching two movies all day long. Cooking at our house or his house. Just playing outside for so many hours at a time. He had a wonderful personality! I'm sure my Dad, his Mom & Dad will have open arms for him in heaven!
