Marie was a very dear lady. We spent many years of weekends in her and Ray’s home. She is the last of the old guard in my family. I guess now I’m the old guard…but I’m much too young. ???? God bless Marie’s family. Sent from Windows Mail From: Larry Lance Sent: ‎Tuesday‎, ‎July‎ ‎8‎, ‎2014 ‎2‎:‎12‎ ‎PM To: iljeffer@rootsweb.com, ilfrankl@rootsweb.com The Mt.
