Dear Belinda, Jackie & family,

God saw the road was getting rough and the hills were harder to climb. He said to your mom my child I know let thy peace be MINE. He opened His arms and she blissfully smiled.

Gwen and family. The loss of a mother only means that she is presently not with you. She is present with the Lord but spiritually will remain connected to your hearts and soul forever.

Love, Gwen Jones.

My prayers are with the Family. Mrs. Marion was a loving Mother and the Grandmother of my 2 children Valeria and Kevin. She lived a full life and was loved by so many people. She had a million dollar smile and was a very classy lady. Mrs. Marion will be truly missed but her spirit will always be with her Loved ones. Peace be with the Family and May God continue to Bless and Keep All of you.
