marisa prince wrote a sympathy message

“You were such a big presence in my life and in our family. You cared in ways you didn’t have to, and that meant more than you probably knew. You loved laughter, especially when you were the one creating it. Every family gathering was better because you were there. You mean so much to all of us and always will. We love you. Rest in Peace.”
