My deepest sympathy to the entire Applehof family. Yours was at generational family at CCHS. I remember Marcia and her 2 friends walking past school every morning, no matter what the weather was. I enjoyed the whole family and loved your positive outlook on life. May God surround you with comfort and peace.
