Marie and I have been friends for more years than I can count. We have not been in contact with each other for some time. My memories of Marie have always been happy ones and usually a meal together. I have tried to get in touch with Marie but a very ill family member kept me occupied. I loved her exuberance and lust for life that she always shared where ever she went. You could not help but love this woman. I really would like to have know that she was ill and I could have visited. Marie will always be missed in my heart but I am sure she is with those who loved her.
