I knew Marie and Fred during their time in Syracuse. Times with Marie were fun, memorable and thought provoking. I have missed her.
Our family also has very fond memories of Arthur. He was our babysitter.
Our sympathy to the family.
love,

As the youngest first cousin in the Morelle family I have many memories of Marie visiting my parents when I was a child. In later years, (around 1989) Marie came home for a family reunion with some of her grown children and grandchildren. She said som ething to me that day that always remained with me. "I know you as a cousin on paper, but I don't know how you think or how you feel. We need to change that!" Those words have always been with me. Love to all.
