Brian and Michael, I know I can't say any words to you that will take away your hurt right now. If there was I would say them over and over. The last time I saw Marcia she was leaving work and said she would see us in a week. The week got longer. I would come into work and her chair was empty. Then the news came. Still can't believe it. Work will never be the same. We played jokes on each other and did have laughter. We would talk about shows like surviour, big brother and american idol. Working with somwone forty hours a week you not only have a friend but they do get to be like your family. I have lost a friend and it really sucks. Take care of yourself

To Brian,Michael,Lois, Doug, and all of Marcia's family:
MY heart goes out to you all. I have known Marcia since February 1982, and we weathered many storms together. She could get happier, sadder and ,yes, madder than most of us. She was just a passionate person... passionate about her work,her family,her dog,her bears,and even her cheeseburger & fries. We worked hard but had many hilarious moments.
I am sad today and will remember her always.My sincere sympathyto you all. May God comfort your hearts.
Marcia, en paz descante.
