My sincere sympathy to you and your family as you say your good-byes to a lovely lady, Mom and Grandma.
Marion worked with my Mom and Grandfather at Morrisons for several years, and at the time I was learning the ropes about the floral industry.She was a patient and kind teacher and filled my days with stories and laughter reflecting her love of the flowers she worked with and her concern and interest for those she created designs.She was indeed a true lady! My sincere condolances.

So sorry for your loss. The one piece of advice I can give is to not mourn her death but celebrate her life! Gone But Never Forgotten!

I was so sorry to hear that Marion had died and wish to express my deepest sympathies to her family. I know that she will leave a void as she was a very loving mother and grandmother;she adored her family! I was her cleaning lady for several years and enjoyed working for her very much! She’ll be missed by many as she had a big heart and loved to cook and/or make crafts for people in need. She was a very generous and kind person and I’m glad to have known her;I’ll truly miss her!
