She was honestly and truly one of a kind. A person could never ask for a better friend.....who quickly became family. Her heart was as big as her personality. She is missed daily...and always will. I'm sure shes flying higher than any angel.

Aunt Marie wasn't just an aunt, she was more like my mom in a way. Many long night conversations, tears, and laughing. Even though we where states apart, we where close. She always called me her baby girl with a big smile. I will miss u more then I will ever b able to explain. I feel empty without u. I love you ??

She was my friend, best friend and Sister. There wasn't to many days go by that I would not call her and say what u doing my Marsie she would say old nothing just sitting around. I enjoyed all the time got to spend with her rather it was bring here to store, Mcdonals to get 4 mcdoubles, bring her to the dr (she hated to c me come for that)or just to go sitting with her. She will be very miss by me but never forgotten. Marsie I will always remember all good times we had love you forever

God saw you getting tired, When a cure was not to be.
So He wrapped his arms around you,
and whispered, "come to me."
You put up one hell of a fight and you earned your Angel wings. One day we will meet again my friend.
May all of you find comfort in the memories you hold so dearly.
RIP Marsie. Forever in our hearts.

We met as neighbors and became almost family. Marsie was always welcoming and so very warm. She was a blast to kick back and relax with. She will always be missed by us. Marsie we know that you had to leave us but our hearts are warmed with the knowledge that you will always be looking out for your family and the people you called family.

heart breaking to be so young and to have such a large family, I'm certain there are many hearts broken. I will lift you all up in prayer and ask that God give you peace. very sad... the pain of a heart that is broken, actually aches, I know from experience. ( I am a FB friend of Betsy's). May she RIP, God bless you all.

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it's the memories of you that are the most precious.
