Marla my friend, I love you so much. I will always remember the conversations we had together about our relationship with christ. You held your bible close to your heart always. Your smile has always stayed with me and always will. You are most likely the most beautiful angle in heaven. You are still one of the most amazing women I've had the opprotunity of meeting and allowing me to know your heart. I Love You Marla. Life is not the same without you. I will see you soon. Always in my heart!!!!

Marla expressed such a joie de vivre that it was easy to smile back at her. A truly nice neighbor, she's still expressing joy, even though we no longer see her.

So heart broken for Marla's family and close friends. It was awesome having another Steeler's fan in Camarillo! Every time I watch a game, I'll be thinking of you.

Marla was a childhood friend and I was so happy to see her at our 30-year high school reunion last month. She had that same beautiful smile and sparkle in her eyes just as I remembered back in junior high. Marla was always friendly and just a joy to be around. I'm greatly saddened by her passing and will lift her family up in prayers.
