What would my life be like, if you were still here with us. I wonder if I would've fallen as hard and low as I did. I remember when the nurse told me to tell you it's ok to pass. To give you permission to let go. I'm sorry I couldn't do it. I'm sorry the last the last thing I said was you cant die. I think about you everyday still. What would life be like if you were still here...

Its been seven years and I still think about her every single day.

Marcia will be remembered as a Delight. In high school she had a sense of humor unique to Marcia --and that is a good thing. I will never forget the pictures of her 70th birthday that you all so graciously shared -- serenity beyond compare. Please accept my sincere sympathy Bob, to your children and precious grandchild, to Judy, Carol, John and their families. May she rest in peace

It is with deep sorry that I hear of the passing of Marcia. I worked with her and her husband many years in the theater. She was a sweet lady. My sympathies and love go to her family.

It is with sadness that I read of Marcia's passing. I worked with her and Robert many years ago with The Arlington Players. She was always so fun to be with, a real character! I had the good fortune of seeing her a few years ago at a going away party of a mutual friend and truly enjoyed our conversation at that time.

I would like to express my deepest and heartfelt sympathies to the family. As you grieve of sadness; may the hearer of prayer help you to endure this time of sorrow and grant you peace. - Psalms 65:2
