So many memories filled with laughter and now so many tears. In childhood she was like my second mom. She gave birth to one of my best friends and saw us through the good, the bad and all the shenanigans in between. I'm so grateful to the time she had on earth with us Her life & legacy will live on with her children as we'll continue to speak her name and share all of our stories. Much love and condolences be with Tam, her family and all who knew Marylou.
