I thank God for the opportunity and the moments I shared, and life lessons learned from an awesome man. The time was brief, but the reward was great. I pray that God's mercy and grace be with you. May God give you the strength and courage to make it through the loss of your husband, father, and leader of many. Rest in Peace "Big Guy".

I am one of the many people touched by Marion's life. I have many fond memories of our joint careers that always involved uplifting and improving the lives of those less fortunate. Marion was a "Giant" among us and will be remembered as such....
Thanks Big Guy... You indeed fought the good fight!
