“I first met Marie when we were in second grade.We became best friends and went through all twelve years of school..Marie was an extraordinary student, she excelled in math and she was very good in gym class. Marie became a great athlete. On Sundays we would go to the Art Museum and the Aquarium. In the latter years, Marie would call me every Tuesday and we would reminisce about the old days. I loved Marie like a sister and I know there is a place for her in heaven. Martha Lacoboulos”

“Marie’s incredible generosity and giving spirit are memories I will always cherish. Her fierce self-reliance and dedication to her family were truly admirable. She was a person who knew her own mind and wasn't afraid to speak it. It's hard to imagine our family gatherings without her presence, which made every occasion feel special. I'll miss her kind heart more than words can say. She will be greatly missed.”

Joan Hansen wrote a sympathy message

“I'll always remember Marie's incredible independence. She was living on her own, taking care of her home and yard, well into her late 80s, a testament to her strength & determination. Marie was a lifelong bookkeeper, a career she earned through sheer grit, putting herself through college. It was that same fiery spirit that defined her friendships and her strong opinions. You always knew where you stood with Marie, and that honesty was one of the things I treasured most about her. I loved her.”
