Dear Gus, Charlie and Damian,

Words aren't enough to tell you how wonderful Marianne was. She was so enlightening and friendly and always had a smile. She had the warmest soul and we were all blessed to have had her with us. We will keep her memory with us forever. She did SO much for Teta Ann and Uncle Pete.. and I don't know what I would have done without her caring help. Please know we are here for you for anything and anytime.

With all our love and blessings,
Cousins Ginny and Butch.

I didn't get to know Marianne very well, but the few times I did hang out with her I absolutely loved her! She was so warm, genuine, and funny and such a fantastic mother. I am so sad for Gus and the boys - my heart goes out to them.

I'm sure her family already know this, but Marianne was one of the most beautiful people I've ever met...inside and out! When my Gradmother started chemo for her breast cancer she was such a source of hope and knowledge for me. I will miss her sweet endearing personality and will always be in awe of her strength. Much love and appreciation to her family for sharing her!

We got to know Marianne when she worked at Duty's. She was a delightful person - warm and cheerful, and always had a funny, cute story about her "boys." We always looked forward to seeing her and made sure we sat in "her" section. She will be greatly missed, and we extend our condolences to her family. Charles and Shirley Champion

I am so sad to hear of Marianne's death. I've seen her for years at church with her mom and boys. She has always seemed so peaceful and so dedicated to her children. I had both boys in my Sunday School class over the years and enjoyed watching them grow. I am so, so sorry for her family. Rest in Peace.
