Dear Minoia Family, I am so sorry for your loss. I had the privledge to have met Marian at my sister's beauty salon a few times and found her to be a fighter til she just couldn't fight anymore. She has gone to a better place but will be missed very much. My heart goes out to you all.

All People Minoia ... my sister Chris just called me. I hadn't heard until just now. Still shocked. Some of my best, and funniest teen-age memories revolve around Mark and I and all the idiots of Mag 7 tormenting Mr. and Mrs. M. Despite all our ridiculous antics, they always welcomed me into their home over the years, and if we met out in public, they'd offer a warm greeting then proceed to regale me (and anyone else in earshot) with colorful family trivia. Mrs. M's tough facade was just that - a front. We've truly lost one of the nicest, most hysterically dry-witted and most tolerant (of me, anyhow) people I've ever met. A sad day. Very sad. I'll be in touch ... most likely on state property.

The time seems to pass way too quickly. When my children were young, so were yours, Nick, and I so remember the good times we shared across the street from one another. We are so saddened to read of Marian's passing; she was a doll! Bless all of you as time passes without her, still knowing that she will always be looking down on you.

Minoia family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Marian was such a lovely lady. I know you all loved her very much but, I want you to know, I thought she was always so much fun to be around with her witt and her humor, she always made me laugh. She really was a very likeable person and I enjoyed knowing her very much. I know you all will miss her terribly, but you all have her strength and her courage and the days will get easier. Be there for each other and know she is with the Lord and she isn't suffering anymore.
You are in my prayers and thoughts. Please call on me if there is anything I can do.
Take care and God bless.
