Dear Marcia's Family and Friends,

Marcia was an honest, open and warm-hearted person. I loved the humorous way she always saw things, which generated a warm feeling and smiles on the people around her. Even when we both no longer worked together, she was still very generous with her support when I needed a friend. She will be greatly missed.

My condolences for your loss.

Jim, Dan and Matthew,

Anna and I were so sorry to hear about Marcia's passing. She was a great person and a great mother. I think of your family when I drive through El Sobrante and regret that we didn't continue our friendship when you moved to Petaluma. Take care my old friend and accept our deepest condolences on your loss.

Dear Marcia's Family and Friends, I worked with Marcia for 25 years and loved every minute of our precious time together. She was my "rock" through thick and thin she challenged me, encouraged me and nurtured me. She was so good about keeping in touch and sharing great stories about her family and adventures that she loved so dearly. I will miss her big smiles, high energy and laughter.

Dear Jim, Dan & Matthew,
Marcia was one of the kindest, happiest, most honest, and accepting people I have ever had the priviledge of knowing. In every memory I have of her, she is smiling. No matter where her life path took her, she always kept in touch. I am so grateful for those periodic catch-up lunches where she mostly talked about you all, the family she loved so much. We will all miss her and remember her with love.

Dear Jim, Dan, and Matthew,

Marcia, your wife, mom, and so many people's friend, and mine, was among the most remarkable people I have ever known. She was such a forthright person and a tried and true friend. She talked about you all the time and loved you dearly, I remember the calendar of your photos she always had hanging every year in her office. I have known Marcia since I started in the LS&CO. IT Department and she also ended up working at KP-IT where I am now. In fact she encouraged me to apply there when I was laid off, and gave me some contact names that helped me get the job. Her professional integrity was a model, and she was such a dear, positive and vibrant person. Please know that my thoughts are with you always, that I am available if you guys ever need anything (510-525-6683), and that I will never forget Marcia and will miss her ALWAYS like so many others who had the privilege of her touching their lives!

With since condolences and love,
