This is very belated, as I just learned of Marcia's passing. I knew her "only" professionally through involvement in history of mathematics, and I just wanted to let the family know, though they will have heard if from others, how important her contributions to that field have been over the course of her life. I recall above all the spirit and determination with which she defended her views about ethnomathematics to more traditional scholars who denied its importance. Quite apart from her inspirational influence on many lives, this work will live on and continue to have influence through subsequent echoes in the scholarly world. We will miss her.

I am so sorry! She was a gracious and lovely woman and both of you made a significant contribution to the field of ethnomathematics. She will be missed.

Mr. Ascher,
You have my deepest sympathies in the loss of your wife. It sounds as if you two had a wonderful life together. May those memories comfort you now. Your wife was my Math Prof at IC back in1964, and I thought then she was a special woman. She was born to teach.
