Marie had a profound impact on my life. She helped me come to terms with my mother's Alzheimer's diagnosis in 1998. She was so kind and helpful to both my mom and me. She helped with the necessary POA paperwork, gave guidance on next steps, and was just there at any time you needed her. She was truly a blessing in our lives. When I saw her obituary, a flood of emotions hit me. That speaks to her character. My thoughts and prayers are with your family during this difficult time. We lost a beloved soul on this earth.

I don't know if it's too late to leave condolences but I just found this....Marie was my social worker when I was a child. I touched base with her back in 2007 or so and wanted to talk again....she was a wonderful human being and I am so sorry for your loss.
