Please accept my sincerest condolences in Marlene's passing. She was a soul who loved purely. Her love for the Lord shone through in everything she did. Her positive, uplifting, caring demeanor had a significant influence on those she encountered. She was truly a blessing directly from God. Sending love and prayers to your entire family.

The minute you met Marlene, you felt like family. She just had that welcoming smile up to the very end. Her faith was profound. She knew life was a gift and she appreciated every single day. Her health struggles started in the 1980´s and she battled hard. She was granted many great years to enjoy family. She has left behind family who grieve but they know her place is in heaven. Love you my friend
