Marsha Marlene Pankratz

Marsha's father Fred, did Me a great kindness upon My arrival in Fairbanks, winter of 94. Got to know Marsha while working at FRA in the mid 90's, where Marsha's smile and company brightened all our lives. Family and friends are in My prayers.

It's always sad to hear of someone's passing. And unfortunately, my only contact with my cousin, Marsh, was many years ago as a child. But we are always blessed when someone like her brings so much into our world. But it is comforting to know that she now rests in God's hand.

We know Marsha from Special Olympics. She bowled and enjoyed the monthly dances put on by the Elks. I remember her lively, funny bouncing dance. One day I watched her tear all the coupons out of a magazine she was looking at, something she seemed to enjoy. We will not forget Marsha. Marilyn Gentleman from Fairbanks

I met Marsha in 1994 and she could have cared less. Marsha was s strong vibrant woman, a real presence. To be as free as Marsha is a goal we should all hope to achieve. Thank you Marsha for showing me to be myself and march to the beat my own drummer.

Marsha will truly be missed. I only knew her for a short time but she has forever touched me. Clay, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Marsha made my life a true joy, it was am honor to have been a apart of hers. She touched everyones she knew. I'll miss her dearly, We love you Ms. Pancakes!!!

Our family sends sincere sympathies to Marsha's family--especially Clay who has spent so much time by her bedside. I never met Marsha; we were separated by thousands of miles, but we share a grandmother. Our love and talent for art will live on...

I am sorry to hear of Marsha's passing. I enjoyed her sense of humor and her art work.

Marsha was a wonderful woman who touched many lives mine included. She had a great sense of humor and enjoyed making people laugh. She worked hard and enjoyed life to the fullest. I have one of her paintings on my wall at home that is of dark evergreen trees with a muted pink sunset. i always reminds me of Marsha and our friendship.
