I was just recently informed of Marianne's cancer from Kim Seyler. I was saddened to hear of the news and prayed that she would not suffer during this. I remember Marianne from when I worked at Grandview. One memory I have that I recall is discussing many times with her about her dog that had anxiety and different ways she could possibly help her dog overcome this. She always was thinking of others and trying to help them. I pray that her family and friends can be reassured that she is with the Lord and that she is in peace now. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. She was a sweet and caring person.

Dan and family - it was with a great deal of sadness to read of the passing of Marianne. Her friendly demeanor at the scorer's bench at GVPB helped make officiating there a pleasure.
