I used to work with Molly at what was then Puget Sound Bank. Sometimes, after work, she would like to wind down and have a drink after work and I'd join her. She was so fun to work with. I'm sorry she's no longer with us. You are missed.

We miss Molly, but we know that she is with our Lord in heaven. One of the last times I visited with her she was so bright, perky, and her eyes sparkled like diamonds! She knew she was going home to the Lord and could hardly wait! She was ready. She was strong willed, strong spirited, and courageous and always welcomed a gentle hug from Steve or I. Blessings to Carrie Lynne for loving her Mom to the end.
