I will always remember Marietta's good nature. As a cook in training, Eta liked copies of my recipe cards and took an interest in what I was trying to do. I knew her through the mall walking group which I attended.

My Aunt Etta was truly a wonderful lady. Always with a laugh, always helpful, a wonderful cook, and loved gardening. My memories extend to family gatherings and visits where she always asked about our daughters Karen and Heather and my wife Nancy. I will truly miss her fun and caring spirit. Thank you for the memories and wonderful times my family shared with you. God Bless and may God grant you everlasting salvation and peace. We will always remember you as a special person.

My aunt Etta was an absolute joy. Her presence was always magnetic and felt by everyone around her. I will always remember her stories, her kindness, and her smile.

Marietta was small but she was mighty. She was a wonderful at so many hand crafts and also as a gardener. I like to refer to her as a Wonder Woman.
She also was a darn good baker. I especially enjoyed her zucchini loaf, made with her home grown zucchini. She will be sorely missed by so many.
Rest in peace, dear Marietta. Rosalie G. Thorn
