To Dawn, Denise, Toby, Rodger and extended family. I am so sorry for the loss of your mom. I will miss talking with her and having our laughs. She and I would talk about things that happened currently as well as the past. I remember when she and Earl talked and how they would joke with one another - he would always call her "Moe". She loved her family deeply and really missed Paul. Well Marion you are now together again and you both will be watching over your children and their children. Will miss you - R.I.P. Marion

Beautiful Marion with a beautiful smile you will be missed. The few times we met at Dawn's home our conversations always centered around our grand children. It was amazing to see your eyes sparkle , your infectious smile brighten your face at the mention of them. You left a legacy of love for each one,
I am sure you will be watching over each one from your heavenly home.

We lived with Grandmom and Pop-pop until I was 7 years old and after that we would go to their house almost every other weekend until we moved to Michigan when I was 14. I’ll always remember going to the mall and getting our nails done together, going to Giant with her, watching Wheel of Fortune and folding laundry in the living room, her candy drawer with twizzlers and whoppers in her bedroom, the junk drawer in the kitchen with unclaimed lost-and-found from her school bus, Grandmom making Pop-pop his sandwich every day with plain potato chips on the side and sitting at the kitchen table with her every morning while she told us stories about her life. I’m so happy that I was able to visit her in Las Vegas a couple of times and got to go to the casinos and play bingo with her. I can’t believe she’s gone but I’m so happy that her and Pop-pop are together again. I love you Grandmom!

I remember coming home from school and we would all wait for Grammom and Poppop to come home from their route. Shed come in and make her coffee and then turn on Wheel of Fortune. Countless days of her tolerating my God awful attempts to play the organ that sat behind her recliner in the living room. Even complimenting me here and there. Poppop always talked about the way I helped Taryn when her leg was broken.. but Grammom brought her hot chocolate and warm blankets. Mom made sure she had everything she wanted elsewise. And I'll never forget her sandwiches. Lol I've made them my whole life the way I do after having had her sandwiches. It's the small things.
The last time I got to wrap my arms around my Grammom, I had barely become an adult.. but she was so in awe of me, I'll never ever forget the surprise on her face when she saw me standing there. We spent the day talking and hanging out at the pool.
I only wish she had been able to give Zayne one of her amazing hugs. I'm happy they'd seen and spoken to one another through video chat... But I'll always wonder what their interaction would have been like. Hopefully Zayne will be able to be with me for their grand hoorah together (both Grammom and Poppop) next summer. However, I'll always have the memory of her smile when she saw Zayne on the screen.
I love you so much Grammom. Wherever you are in heaven, give Poppop a big hug and kiss for me. I'm glad you're together again. We just hope you both know how much our lives will be changed here without you. Until we can all be together again, please keep an eye on us. You know better than anyone that we all need a kick in the rear sometimes.
I've missed you both for so long... This is a different kind of missing you altogether. Above all else, I'm sorry for not having been more present. I should have been there more.
I hope you'll forgive me.
I'll be looking for you guys in the night sky.
The Best Grandparents that a stepkid could have ever had. Because I never felt like a stepkid. You both made sure of that.
