    Marcia, my heart 💔 broke a little more today with the knowledge of your passing. You were more than an aunt (though I could never call you that) you were my mentor and friend. I will always remember our days and evenings together…the stories and the insights you provided into other perspectives. I will miss you Marcia and will remember that saying that people will judge what they see on the outside but will never know the struggle behind to be where you got to today. I love you and thank you. Our deepest condolences Carolyn, Irvine, Alexander and Alan (who will meet you on the other side). Now you can fly free xxxxx
