I use to see Marcia at shift change. Often times I would take over caring for her patients. I will always remember her smile; she had a beautiful smile. May your memories of her comfort you now and in the days ahead. Please accept my sincere condolences.

To the family of Marica, I sat on the executive board with her at SEIU Healthcare Wis. I did get to know her we talked together for 5 minutes at a meeting. She spoke of her family and her love for them. The Master has called Marica home. To Marica's family "Peace Be Still" Love Norma Silas-Martin
