We will miss Marcia’s visits to City Hall. She was a friendly, caring person. She always gave money to charities, locally and throughout the country. She would bring in calendars they sent her, for us to hang in our offices. We always enjoyed receiving her holiday cards. Throughout her battle with cancer, she never complained.Rest in peace Marcia.
We will miss seeing Marcia out and about on her daily trips. Drivers and passengers would ask about her if she missed a day on the bus, she was someone we could count on being there. Her holiday cards would always put a smile on people’s faces; she was such a kind person.
Marcia left an imprint on all of our hearts that will not be soon forgotten.
Your kind words and the friendly chats that we have had over the last 7 years will be greatly missed. May you be at peace Marcia.
