Uncle Roy, Phillip, Ricky & Todd,
I am so sorry I cant be there to help console you during this time, but you are definitely in my thoughts and prayers. Aunt Marilyn was such a "fun" person to be around. She always made you laugh. Her family was the most important thing to her. She will be greatly missed by us all. I love you all and share your grief.

Aunt Marilyn was a Truly a Special Lady. As a child she would take me places with the boys (one of my most fondest memory was the Midsouth Fair) We had lost contact with each other & just recently was back in contact. I sure am going to miss those emails & web cam chats. I know you rest in peace & breath freely, now me knowing that I can except the Lords will. Will always be in my Heart. Uncle Roy & Boys I have you in my thoughts & prayers. May Our Lord carry you through this time.
With All My Love,
JoAnn & Herschell Smith
