She was my Godmother and a great one at that. I will always cherish my memories of her playing the piano, playing the organ, singing and all the summers we spent with her when we were children. She was a very special person and will be missed tremendously. Our prayers are with you now. Our only consolation is she is suffering no more and is in a much better place. She has earned her eternal reward. Love, Son and Elaine”

It goes without saying that Aunt Marie was a huge part of our lives, attending every special occasion we had, and who was there for us during ordinary times as well. We can hardly remember a time without her so it goes without saying how sad we are for your loss as well as ours. However, God heard our prayers and ended her agony which had lasted for so long. We are consoled by the fact that she is now happily rewarded and at peace, never to suffer again. We loved her so much . . . “

“Tommy Jr., Bennie and Glenda..Aunt Marie loved her family so much..her eyes would light up and her beautiful smile radiated whenever she had “company come”. She taught me to play piano and organ and I loved those times playing with her when I came home to visit. I know she suffered in her final years but she knew she could offer it up to God for others so she never complained. I truly treasured her and we will all hear her playing piano and singing sweet songs in heaven one day. I cannot imagine my childhood without Aunt Marie and Uncle Tommy having so blessed it.

I remember spending lots of summers walking from Grandma’s house, to yours and then to Aunt Doodle’s. Your mom was always welcoming, happy and playing the piano. When I last saw her – which was some time ago in the nursing home, she always wanted to know how my kids and grandkids were and if I had any pictures – she so loved children….I know she was welcomed into heaven by all of her family, and regret she had so much suffering these last few years….but her reward is great now!
