Marie, my big cousin. From little, we've always called you Marie, not Shirley. I remember well prior to you getting sick, when we would talk on the phone, you would always greet me like this: " Hey lil lady. How you doing?" May you rest in peace. We will all miss you and love you.
Gone but not forgotten.

Cousin, Ann in Georgia.

I miss you grandmother... I want you with me. I missed you even before you left... We are lucky to have known you. I am luck to have been loved by you. I will never stop loving you... I'll be living the Maree/Marie life for us. I'm not ok but want to be... Tell everyone hello for me.

Love, Trishan Maree
