Dear Donald, Sharon & Families:

My heartfelt condolences to you and your families for your loss. My apologies for not attending the memorial service as I explained in my letter to you. To lose someone so close is a difficult adjustment, as we both are going through now. But keep thinking of all the fond memories and that will help lighten the load. My memories of Marion goes back a lifetime. When she married your Dad in 1938, I must have been only six years old. I remember...

My Dear MOM, MARION O. WONG,
Dear Grandmother, Greatgrandmother,
we love you very much, and
we dearly miss you immensely,
GOD made a wonderful Mother and HE gave that dear Mother to me,
GOD bless my Mother in her
sentimental journey to see Dad.
love Don, Kimm, Sharon, and
the family

Marion at her brother Frank's 80th birthday party

Cousin Marion was an extraordinary woman who was very a giving individual... She brought to life something extra special. She was the glue of her family and every Chinese New Years all her family came to Isleton. Something all in her family from her son and daughter and their children as well as all her sisters and brothers and their children.

For me, cousin Marion mentored me by example in being a good spirit and in being thoughtful. We Chinese call it "Ho Sum" or Good...

I am very very sorry to hear that dear Marion has passed away. She and her husband the late Wong Sing were great friends in my parents lives and we as children were very blessed to know this kind wonderful woman. She had a heart of gold. She would help people in Isleton that were down and out emotionally and if they needed something. I would hear stories from my parents how she would help people not
just Asians but Hispanics too. One great woman.
