Was so very sorry to learn of Marcene's death. I wish I would have known sooner. I am a first cousin of Marcene and live in Shenandoah, IA. Marcene and I visited over the phone many times over the years and I always wondered why I wasn't able to reach her, but didn't know who to contact. Again, so sorry for your loss. Terry Stafford

We were neighbors to Marcie for only the past three years but she left an instant lasting impression and we couldn't have asked for a better neighbor. My prayers and thoughts go out to the family.
