She will also be missed by the previous employees of Better Day adult day health care where she was a participant. She was full of life and always had stories to share with us.

We at A Woman's Friend are mourning the loss of Marian, a frequent visitor and, important to note, volunteer. She ensured her church participated in our Walk for Life and she helped us prepare for our annual banquet. Her heart was golden, and we miss her.

Marian was a great lady who was always willing to help. She helped out at A Womans Friend a lot. She recently helped us in Thanksgiving in front of our house to serve food to the homeless. We will miss you Marian. Thank you for all your hard work.

Love this woman, she would always come into my work Dollar Tree in Marysville ... she would always have a story to tell to me. She was always at all of the Gold Sox games. And for the newest thing that she was attending, she told me that she started square dancing. She wore he new square dancing shirt into my work to show me. Marian will be missed.

Marian and I crossed paths more than 100 times in association with radio station events. While she appeared to be a bombastic person on the outside, she had a tender side as well. Yes, she was quick to ask for a handout and loved to hoard odds and ends, but it was interesting to hear about her travels and her life.

I remember her from the ballpark. She was loud and abnoxious but I think it was just because she wanted someone to listen to her. So I always tried to do my best to stand there and nod my head and listen to her. Some of the guests at the ballpark were just cruel to her. Now I bet they wish they would have treated her better. May she rest in peace and watch the games from Heaven.
