Our condolences to the Marks family. Kathy was our wonderful neighbor on Brier Neck for many years. We knew her to be a kind and gracious woman. We will miss her cheery hellos and visits to share chocolate and a few smiles.

Our love and condolences to the Marks family. We have so many great soccer memories - endless carpools and games near and far. We were lucky to have shared those experiences with her.
