Marietta E. SPENCER

Marietta placed me to adoption in 1962 and i met her in 1986 meeting my birth mother . She was a nonsense lady i will never forget! God bless you Marietta i will always remember you!

Marietta took care of me the first 6 months of my life. At the time she had fled Vienna, and was staying with my parents who were extended family members.. That bond has stayed with me forever. Later in my grown up years, she supported me as a to get to Graduate School at the University of Minnesota. She, Bob, and the children were all there to once again enhance my life, forever, through education. Most of all through her warm and loving presence she gave of herself and to everyone around her.

Her work has had a lasting effect on all adopted children
and has had such meaning in the Adoption
community. Believing in transparency, and open communication she had a part in changing an antiquated system, and in this respect has left her mark in the world. Bravo Marietta. You were a apical and unique presence on the planet...Love always, Marian
