Even though I didn't see her much the last few years, I have many memories of childhood visits to see cousins Marlea and Patty. Until Patty's marriage, we celebrated Christmas and Thanksgiving with them and Uncle Clifford every year. Marlea was a good hearted person and always had a smile. She talked constantly about her niece and nephews, and later about their kids. She was lucky to have you all in her life, especially after Patty's passing. My sympathies. Mary (Kahlhamer) Thornton
