    I’m so sorry to hear about Marion. She was a lovely lady, always full of smiles. I started as a little girl, hanging off the grocery store cart while Mom and Marion caught up in an aisle of the Co-op. Eventually I was old enough to understand how great these stolen catch ups are, and to have a few of my own with Marion. What a privilege.
