Molly, I have known you since the age of 17. You have been the best sister in law to me and aunt to Michelle. Although we lost contact with each other for a few years you always remained in my heart as friend and sister. I love you, Molly, and will miss your beautiful energy! Be in peace and love...

Molly, the strongest, toughest, gutsiest person we will ever know. Molly stood up to any and every situation. She would support anyone in need and give them the shirt off her back. Molly didn't know how to quit. Molly faced many struggles in her life and yet she was always helping others with theirs.
Sister I miss you and love you. I will always remember your strength and determination. Thank you for sharing your time with me.

I met Molly when I was 16 years old and dating her brother, we have now been married for 42 years, so I have many memories of her. Some of the early memories are of going to movies downtown, dancing at The Exodus, going to the Folklore Center and a coffee house on Colfax. She has been very important to my life and I will do everything I can to keep her spirit alive with my children and grandchildren. Rest in Peace Molly.

I have known Molly all my life. I do not remember not knowing her. She was a babysitter to my sister and I, a piano teacher, a friend, and a neighbor. The Mandler family will never forget you. Love always, Susan Mandler Echelberger along with Janis and Lorraine Mandler

Peace. Molly fought her whole life for peace and equality for all. Her efforts will not be forgotten in my lifetime, the lifetime of my children and the lifetime of my grandchildren.

Molly taught me so much growing up as a kid and even more as an adult. She pulled no punches, she always told it like it was, she was always there to listen and give her opinion and she never, ever judged. She was a teacher, a role model, a friend and an aunt. I miss what we lost in her but I will forever carry her spirit along with me as I go forth in my life journey.

I cannot believe we are saying goodbye to our beloved sister. She was the heartbeat of our family and an amazingly brave and incredible person. Stand straight, walk proud and dwell in peace Molly. I love you sister. Mary

We will always have great memories of Molly when we worked together in Grand Junction. She had a great spirit, and I reconnected with her just a few months ago when I called her. We had a great conversation, but she told me she was really having a difficult time health wise. We are in AZ for the winter but will be thinking of you folks especially on Feb 5. We are better for having know Molly and this world is a better place for all the lives she touched. John and Bobbie Wilson
