My condolences to the family of Chief Marie, she will be missed. My girls and I always enjoyed being with Chief Marie as she enjoyed being with my girls, she always loved getting hugs and holding them.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

My family and I have loved your Mother as she has made us a part of her family and friends. She has told us of her enjoyment of watching Sarah, my granddaughter, growing and learning Native song and dance. She also asked for and received an picture of my husband, Diamond Jim, when he died. Her Elder Provider, Alfreda, said he looks at her every time she visits Chief Marie. We will miss her company at potlatches, pow-wows and other Native gatherings.

May you find blessed peace and...
