Not sure what to say?

So sorry to hear that Marilyn passed away. I painted with her for many years in Winter Haven. She was a dear friend that I missed seeing after she stopped coming to paint. She was a wonderful artist that inspired us all.

So sorry to hear that Aunt Marilyn passed away. She was a wonderful person. So sorry that we can't be there for the celebration of life but hopefully our flowers arrive for It for tomorrow. Love Lori, Kevin and Bill Hancock

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
