I'm very sorry for your loss,Marcel was my first boss when I started at Data General in 1977. I learned a lot from him, and enjoyed working with him until I left 1983.

Dear Maida - I am so sorry for your loss and I did not know about this until today. I had so much fun working with Marcel on assorted projects and fund-raisers at the First Congregational Church in Brimfield. Marcel was such a good man and had a wonderful zest for life and a well developed sense of humor. The world will miss him. Again - I am so very sorry for your loss.

Mourning, grieving and time to weep
This day the hurt is oh so deep
Entwined souls wrenched apart
Husband, partner, best friend departs
The sages foretell time heals this greatest of rifts
Someday the pain outweighed by his gifts
But this day is not that day of serenity to keep
Today is for mourning, grieving and time to weep

Maida,
I am very sorry to hear of Marcel's passing. I have so many memories of working with you and he at DG. I was talking with Conrad Zukowski just a couple of days ago when Marcel's name came up and we were discussing all the people we knew. My sincerest condolences.

Maida and Family,
Marcel was like a father to me when I first started at Data General in 1979. He was very tough on the outside but very soft on the inside. I learned a great many things from him and enjoyed working with/for him up until he left. Remember all the good times, I know I will.

Please accept my deepest sympathies. I was extremely sad to learn of Marcel's death. He was a very good friend to me in the short time circumstance allowed me to spend with him. I will always remember his kindness and advice. My thoughts and prayers are with Maida and his family.
Laura.
