MARIE G. MEEKS

Miss Marie taught my sister Annette 2 grades at Otter Creek Elementary. We moved to Ocala before she could be my teacher - my loss. It always brought a smile when we'd see her at every funeral we attended at Ellzey Cemetery. Seeing my other family she'd taught, she'd always ask about Annette. I remember when they were finally reunited - what a sweet reunion. Sadly, Annette passed away last Nov. and now her beloved teacher. We'll miss seeing and visiting with her. What a wonderful...

Not a day goes by that I don't think of my sweet Grandma and how much I miss her! "What we gonna do"

"Even though I walk in the valley of deep shadow, I fear nothing bad, For you are with me; Your rod and your staff are the things that comfort me. Psalms 23:4

She was TRULY one of the MOST AMAZING women I have ever known! I am so Blessed to have known her, loved her and be a part of her wonderful family. I will always miss her smile and her kind words. But as we layed her to rest on Saturday I found some peace with it knowing she was going to Heaven to be with the love of her life, her daughter and her other family. She lived a long, full 101 yrs God Bless her!

Ms Marie had a very full wonderful life. She was good friends with my grandmother who died in 1967. I went to visit her a few times about 10 years ago and I'd take her to Cedar Key for lunch. Every time I saw her I learned more about my grandmother which meant so much to me. She dearly loved her students and her life in Ellzey. An AMAZING woman!!!

Grandma will be missed by all who knew her. We are sorry about your loss. We wish your family to be strong and know that God will take over. Love, Bonnie and Jimmy George

Sorry for your loss! Our prayers are with your family. You have a very special angel with you now! Regina Gay and family

May God bless the many families at this time of your sorrow. She was my cousin and I remember shared times in our younger lives, especially those Homecoming events at Ellzey United Methodist Church that my sisters and I enjoyed with Marie as leader and contact person for this homecoming.
