Not sure what to say?

I worked at oakcrest for a few years, I also had the pleasure to know marion. She had so many neat stories to tell and she was so determined to do stuff for her self she had a lot of love and advice to give. My sympathy goes out to the family at this time of sorrow.

My cat Esmeralda and I spent many happy visits with Marion at Oak Crest. I enjoyed hearing the stories of her childhood animals. Molly the Cat on her mother's bed, the ponies with the long names: Flora Belle Gertrude Pollyanna (I think!), the outhouse incident with the kitten. I wish I could have heard more! She lived a worthy life and will certainly be missed.

My condolences to the family. Marion and I sometimes shared shifts at The Country Store and I enjoyed our conversations. She was a great lady.

My condolences go out to the family of Dr. Sheriff. Although I did not know her personally, I am a friend of John Darrah and I want to pass on my deep wishes and prayers for him and the family.
