I have such happy memories of Marianne! I was always glad when I had one of her kids in my second grade class at Swanson because it meant a lot of laughs at conference time. She was often at school to help out and had such a happy attitude. I was just thinking of her the other day and smiling at the fun we had so many years ago.

I'm sending my best wishes to your family and hoping that those memories are bringing smiles to your faces as well.

Fondly,
Sherry Power
