I can't find Bingo cards, as that is how I'll remember Marianne. When I did get the chance to win a game she would come and get my card to confirm the Bingo and bring me my winnings. She had a wonderful Smile. Watch over us Marianne and say hello to Rhoda and Mike. You have left a Big footprint here on Earth.

To my family, I have so many great memories I could share about Marianne. She was not just my cousin, we were blood sisters since I was 10 years old. She would say she only had brothers so my sisters were her sisters. Shirley, Marianne and I had many good times together growing up and lots of fun stories . When in Florida we would get together with the other cousins and do a lunch. So nice cathching up. I posted a couple of these pictures. Gary and I will miss her terribly as she was a big part of our life not only in Saginaw but Florida too. R.I.P Marianne.
