I was so sorry to hear about Marsha. I considered her a dear friend. You three kids were so close and seem to always be there for each other. I remember how fond of her niece and nephew she was. And she loved her sister-in-law. I hope she is at peace and resting.
Nancy, Ford and family--Marsha was such good company for me at the grocery store! I always enjoyed visiting with Marsha and she kept me laughing at tales about you guys! Know that you are in my prayers during this time.
Nancy, ..Condolences. I did not know Marsha very well but she was always helpful and nice to me. I had flowers sent as a memorial to the library as I found out too late to send to the services. I didn't know she was an assistant there all these years.

I am so sorry to hear of Marsha's passing. I know that she suffered quite a bit in recent years, but whenever I ran into her she was out living life and making the best of things. She had a lot of friends and your family, and she was far from being alone. She will be missed.
I've only seen Marsha a few times, at reunions since High School. I remember her as a very friendly person. She was always jolly and happy. Never without words.
Sorry to loose her.
I have fond memories of growing up in Marianna and living close to your family. I remember Nancy and Ford more but Marsha was there too. My condolences to your family.
Ford, Nancy and family, My thoughts and prayers are with you all. They said that it gets easier with time but i haven't figured out when yet. I cry daily and say a prayer hope my pain ends soon.I am so sad to hear about Marsha but she battled to very end. I had so much going in my life but My Mom passed away 5/19/09. I have tried to keep in touch over the years.
Nancy, Ford and Dinah - I am so sad to hear of Marsha death - I know I haven't seen you all for a while but I consider you all like family! You are in my thoughts and prayers. Hope to see you soon!
