To the family of Marcella, I read about Marcella's passing in the Evansville paper on line. I live in Nashville, Tn. now to be closer to my family. I used to live next door to her when she lived on Windsong Cove. She was one of the sweetest, kindest ladies I have ever known. I know you all will miss her. Joyce BECKNER Nashville, Tennessee.
