Not sure what to say?

It does not seem that it has been seven years since Marcella’s passing. As I indicated then I feel the same way now. Marcella was precious and a true co-worker and friend. As I mentioned earlier she is missed. Rest In Peace.

When I pass her house I think the good times and memories. Rest In Peace Marcella!

We miss your laugh and smile cousin

My name is Jim Brown. I worked with Marcella many years ago in West Side High School in Newark. She was a dear and caring person. I lost contact with her during this tragedy and will never forget her. I will remember her in my prayers. Jim Brown

To Linwood and the Oglesby family – I just learned of Marcella's passing from a former colleague. Please accept my sincere condolences for her loss. We all worked together at NCC several years ago. Marcella always exhibited warmth and a caring spirit as she worked to help vulnerable children and families. I know she will be missed by you, her extended family, and her many friends. I pray that the Lord will bring you strength and comfort in the days ahead.

To the Oglesby family, I send heartfelt sympathy! I learned of Marcella's passing a few days, ago. I am sorry I was not able to attend the viewing or service. Our daughters were friends, and I enjoyed talking with Marcella. May her soul rest in peace.

I send condolences on behalf of Marcella's Alma mater, the Virginia Commonwelath University School of Social Work.

To Marcella's family; I first met your mother shortly after you moved to New Jersey. We met through work. Marcella was passionate about making sure that we did what was best for children. Her spirit was strong and sure. May you be comforted in knowing that she made a difference for many who needed what her talents could bring. She was a warrior for children.

Dear Linwood, I just heard about your wife's death. I am so very sorry. I spoke to Jade and learned so many wonderful things about Marcella. I am sure her life was a blessed one. I am sure your love for each other was strong. May you and your children find solace in each other during this very difficult time. "But let them sleep, Lord, and me mourn a space." With much affection, Wendy McNeil
