Lou Ellen, Dave and family Our hearts are heavy for you, but our love and prayers are with you. We all know she is in a better place but it is so hard to let go of such a wonderful human being who gave so much of herself. May the lord guide you in this dark time and show you he will take care of her and love her as you did, so you will once again find peace in your hearts.

Marian Doran left this world loved by so many. She had a beautiful soul and it shone through to those she met and became friends with. I for one valued the long distance friendship we had. The Lord called her home and we have to let her go but she will be with family and friends forever in our hearts.
