I'm so sorry to hear of Marlene's passing. My father Merle was her nephew and they were in touch for some time. (He's been ill the last several years and recently passed away.) We never got a chance to meet, but I did get to speak to Marlene a few times and she was very helpful with some genealogy questions and a few photos. My sympathies to her family and everyone who loved her - Patrick
