I was so sorry to hear of the passing of my cousin Marie. She was my babysitter growing up in Spokane. As we moved across the state she did too. She always showed wonderful support toward my family her Uncle Joe & Aunt Tish in Olympia. Enjoy the company of your dear mom & dad who just passed a few years ago. I love you Marie.
God bless you,
Cousin Tina
