my sympathy to all the family From Rose Millard and family

Marie was my good friend for over 40 years. We shared rasing our kids , our good times, our work experiences. Though we each moved away just far enough to not be able to visit in person too often in recent years, we remained phone buddies. Marie loved life and everyone she came in contact with. She loved all the holidays and having her family near her, especially birthdays.! She seldom forgot to send me a birthday, anniversary or Christmas Card. She had a good wit, and buy the way, she was a terrific cook. I am a better person from my friendship with Marie. God Bless you honey!!!
Love, Sharon.
