To all the family:
A sweet lil lady with a soft voice and always a beautiful smile . A lot of memories to cherish forever. Will never forget the time mom and dad was at the lake with Roy and Marie and dad fell in and all he could think of was his billfold lol. Always a good neighbor to my family. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
We were sad to hear of Marie’s passing. We have many good memories of being neighbors with Marie,
her brother, and their parents on Glady Fork Road in Candler. We will always remember their friendship
and kindness. Our Condolences to Kenneth, and all of Marie’s family.
