Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
I usually never know what to say in times such as these, but my aunt Marsha was by far the most kind hearted person I’ve ever had the honor to know. She gave so much of herself for others, never asking for anything in return. I will miss her greatly and think of her often. In times like these we often search for answers to questions we will never know the answers to, human nature I suppose. However, for all the answers I don’t know, there are a few that I do. My aunt Marsha is no longer hurting, she is no longer in pain, she is no longer suffering. So while my heart weighs heavy, filled with sorrow and grief, I will find peace and comfort in knowing that she has been called home and is now in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ, along with my grandfather, my aunt Dana, and fellow family & friends. Goodbye Marsha, I love you. May you rest in peace and find eternal happiness. I’ll never forget the kindness you’ve shown to me and my family. We’ll miss you so very much. Somehow I know we’ll meet again, I’m not sure quite where, and I dont know just when. You’re in my heart, so until then, goodbye & Gods speed. Kurt Gunzelman
It’ times like these when we don’t know what to say or do, the only thing I can truely say is, I loved Marsha a lot. She was always a kind person to me and I will always be greatful for that. Marsha will share a place in my heart that is only given to a few people! I hope the family will find peace in their hearts and know that she has gone to see our heavenly father. Marsha, you will be greatly missed and remembered for all those you have helped! I love you and would like to say farewell!
