We are saddened to hear of the passing of our classmate Marcia. Marcia was a dear friend who always had a kind word to say. She will be missed by all who knew her and we will think of her often as we continue on. We wish her family and closest of friends the deepest of sympathy during this time of sadness.

I use to clean their home. Marcia was a very, very gracious woman. Always up and a smile on her face. I always enjoyed going to their home and looked forward to going there. No matter what mood I was in on arrival, I left in a even better mood. She was very, very nice. I am truly sorry for your loss.
