Dear Chuck and family,
I was so saddened to hear of Mara's passing. She was my mentor, life coach, and friend for more than 10 years. I will miss her so, and I pray that the loving spirit with which she graced our earth will help you all heal during this difficult time.
God bless you Mara. Rest peacefully.

Mara (Mimsie) was a true, smart soul who never veered from authenticity. She was a best friend in
junior/high school, and remained an exceptional
person and mother when I visited her in Concord years ago. My heartfelt condolences to Chuck, her children, and her brother, Joe Speiden. She will be greatly missed, and highly remembered.

Dear Chuck and family,
I was so saddened to learn of Mimzie's death. We spent all of our high school years together and I will always remember her wonderful smile and her contagious laugh. She was a wonderful friend with whom I had lost touch through our adult years, but I will always treasure the memories I have of her.

Dear
Sara, Chuck, and Matt - Unbelievable that such a bright, loving spirit
is gone from the world. Much too soon. My family - especially my Sarah
and me - treasures all the fond memories we have of her. My heart
breaks at her loss. Godspeed, beautiful Mara! Lila, Sarah, Anna, and Jon
