Like my brother Richard, I just learned of my aunt Marion’s death.  My most recent memories are of  two brief visits to her and Don’s trailer in Las Vegas during the 90s.  They showed me around town and the mountains, and Marion told great family stories.  She was one of my first babysitters, being a student at North Georgia College when I was born. Don and Marion were lovely people, and I miss them.

Our sympathies to Marion’s family.  We just learned of her passing tonight. Marion was one of seven siblings of Richard’s mother Nina. She and her husband Don were fine, talented, loving people with a keen sense of humor. We feel our lives were enriched by knowing them.
