Dear Casey and Grant,
I have known your mother only for a short period of time (since she started working at the Darby Welfare Office.) However, since the first day she came into the office, she brightened up the office with her friendliness and her sense of humor. I felt like I had known her for years.(I wish I had ) I know she loved you both and wants the best for you and I know she will always be in our hearts. She was a good person and I will miss her.

I have known Marlene for 27 years and during that time I had the opportunity share laughter and sorrow with your mother. She will be sorrowfully missed. May God blessed you all.

Dear Casey and Grant:
I was deeply saddened to learn of your mother's passing. I was fortunate enough to have known your mom, Mar, as we worked together at workers' comp. She brought so much fun and laughter to the office on a daily basis. She will be sorely missed, but fondly remembered. My thoughts and prayers are with you both in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Dear Grant and Casey, like so many others who were drawn to Marlene by her charm, funny sense of humor and warmth, I am deeply grieved and bewildered by her unexpected death. I remember meeting Marlene through Tom, who works on the same floor as I do at BWC. Darlene and I had so much in common since I was raised in Panama and she in Costa Rica. She was such a fun person to talk to and will be greatly missed. May the thoughts and prayers of all those who love you help sustain you at this difficult time.

Dear Casey and Grant,
Please accept my sincerest sympathy for your loss. I had the good fortune to work with your mom at Workers' Comp for about 5 years. I send my thoughts and prayers to you and her family to give you strength.

Dear Casey and Grant,
Your Mom meant the world to me and to everyone who knew her. From the first time that I met her back in the "Oakmont" days, I knew how special she was and always looked forward to seeing her. It didn't matter if we were standing outside in the cold proudly watching our kids in the Halloween parades, or at a less than exciting parent assembly, your Mom always had a way to turn it into a fun time with her great sense of humor and quick wit! We didn't get to spend a lot of time together, but the time we did share I will always treasure. She will always have a special place in my heart.
Please let us know if there is anything we can do for you - feel free to call anytime.
Love,
Kathy, Vince, Kevin, and Tommy

Dear Fournier Family,
I am soo sorry for your loss. It seems like just yesterday we were all so happy hanging around the bakery. I always remember Marlene as Dawn's "cool" aunt, always laughing or telling a good joke. I will keep your family in my prayers and thoughts as you go thru this difficult time.
