What a wonderful tribute that brought back so many memories. The pictures were the essence of the Marla we knew and grew up with. So talented, beautiful and brilliant. For a moment we were with her again.
Ann, God bless you, the family and her memory always.

It has been many years since I had seen Marla, but I do remember her bright smile she had for everyone. I went to school with Marla at Hudson and lived not too far from her.
May God Bless your family at this time and keep you wrapped in his arms for comfort.
Your family will be in my prayers.

Marla was with no doubt one of the most gorgeous, funny & smart girls that I ever had the pleasure of knowing, so many years ago. I will always remember her beautiful, infectious smile and her precious soul. Rest in peace, sweet Marla. Your pain is now over and your new journey begins.

Ann, when I met you at Ben & Ellen's, I listened intently and with sadness when you told me about Marla and my heart went out to you. I now pray that our Lord will comfort you and bless you in this time of need.

Dear Anzo,
Though I never met your beautiful Marla, I felt an empty spot in my heart when Ellen told me of her death. I know the pain and emptyness of surviving the loss of a love, but the loss of a child is something I cannot even fathom. I am thinking of you in that dark hole. Please be very gentle to yourself, as you are fragile, and accept the quiet time it will take to heal. Those we love remain with us always.

News travels fast when a friend passes away. I have not lived in Lufkin for many many years and was always abreast of Lufkin's marriages, deaths, births and coming and goings of classmates by my cousin Lauralyn. With Lauralyn's passing several years ago to cancer - I don't get my updates anymore, but another friend sent me an email of this sad departure of Marla.
Such a bright and funny girl she was back in school - God Bless Her.
I would like to convey my condolences to Marla's family and remind them to keep all the good memories in the fore front. My thought and prayers are with you.

Dear Family of Marla,
I am thankful to have known Marla and will be praying that the Lord Jesus will comfort you all during this time of mourning. The most important thing in life is to know Jesus and I was informed that Marla was saved and so I know we will see her again in Heaven one day. God Bless Marla Gaye English and her entire family. She will be missed by all that knew her.
Sincerely,
Bob Brumble
