Buzz and I are devastated with the sad news of your darling mother. We found out just this afternoon. We had no idea she was ill. She never forgot my birthday and always sent me a card. I will miss her sweetness and smiling face. God bless you all. Our arms are around you in your grief. Prayers for you all. Dawn and Buzz Gillogly

Prayers and thoughts for God's comfort at this time of loss; she was a role model for me as a younger cousin. Living in Az I didn't have much contact with her but I have always admired her and her parents..

Dear Bob, Matt, Sarah and Marcia's beautiful grandchildren and other family members.......she loved you all.
Bruce, Tom and I lived just a short walk through the woods, in Westford, to the Chamberlain home. For four short years we were neighbors but........friends for life. Many afternoons Marcia and I would have tea time while keeping a close eye on the kids. I loved the way she said Carmen with her charming New England accent. I have such cherished memories of my time spent in the Chamberlain kitchen.........with much laughter and always a cup of tea.
We send our deepest sympathy for your loss..........and ours.

Bob, Sarah, Matt and families, I was very sorry to hear of your loss. Marcia/Your Mom was such a sweet person and always seemed to be smiling and happy. I'm sure a big part of that was because of the happiness her family brought her. Bob, at your wedding reception Marcia had given me a ring as a gift from you two for being the ring bearer. I thought a lot of that ring for a good amount of time after she gave it to me. Unfortunately, being an irresponsible kid I eventually lost it. But I thought about it now and then and had really appreciated the gift. When I heard of Marcia's passing I thought of it again with two regrets. The first was that I lost it and the second was that I never told Marcia how much I appreciated it. I'm hoping that she knew. If not, I hope that she knows now. I will be praying for all of you to have strength during this difficult time.

Bob, Matt, and Sarah,
Danny and I are so sorry to hear this news. She always spoke about her children and grandchildren with so much love. I think they, and Bob, were her number one focus and joy in her life. What a great mom, wife, and
grandma!! How lucky you all were to have her in your lives! Marcia was a
wonderful, dedicated teacher at the Ditson. And, being the person she was she treated her students with the same respect and love that she treated her own children. You must be proud of your mom, a special, fun loving, caring person. May she rest in peace and may you find solace in your special memories of Marcia, your special mom..Nancy Schuster

I will always remember the fun Marcia and I had whether it was having tea, or shopping (we were "power shoppers"- could spend tons of money in minutes-we always laughed about that), or just being together. I have missed her since moving to Alabama. But, I am so happy she got down here to visit me. I wish she could come again...but not to be. So sorry, Bob, and sorry for your children and grandchildren. She was a treasure!

Bob, Matt and family, Sarah and family, My thoughts are with you all at this sad sad time. Marcia was such a kind, welcoming person who I had the greatest of pleasure to spend time with when visiting USA and also here in Scotland.
I know you will all miss her greatly, but will have so many wonderful memories of Marcia.
