Our family sends heartfelt condolences to Marj's family. Marj lived at Monarch Greens with our Mother and was a wonderful resident ~ always smiling, happy and congenial. During every visit, I would get a big hug and kiss from her when arriving and departing. When I'd ask how she was, she'd reply, "I'm fine and even if I wasn't, it wouldn't do any good to complain because no one would listen!" We'd laugh and hold hands or have another hug. I was able to sit with her on her last day, reminding her of our hugs and conversations and am grateful to have had time with her. I will truly miss her ~ she was always a lovely ray of sunshine and one of my very favorite ladies at MG. Blessings to the family. Gaylene
