To the family of Maria – Gloria and I share in the passing of Maria. We have shared many experiences with her on our mowing days at the home. We are sure she'll be remembered by many.
Very sorry to hear of Marie's passing. We loved the time we spent at their home when Greg was making vet calls. Your parents were such genuine wonderful farm folk. We always think of Marie this time of year as she made Christmas stockings for every member of our family. She was special & we'll miss her
I'm so sorry to hear Aunt Marie had passed away. She was my favorite aunt, and I had many. She was my godmother and she did an exceptional job of showing me to Jesus Christ. She lived it and loved it. She made many Christmas stockings for family and friends that will be treasured and passed along to family members in the years to come. She was the happy wife of a farmer who lived in Madison, Ohio, My Uncle Mose.
