In lieu of flowers, memorials may be given to her family and they will designate it to Marian’s favorite charity.

I knew someday that I must die. Don’t weep, don’t mourn, I can’t see you. God has given me treasures and love to share. He has called dear ones, so set me free. The Lord has called, it was time to leave. Help me to softly close the door, on tasks undone and places unseen and the family I adore. Let my spirit remain, when the Lord calls me home. He knew the right time and place. He knew I’d be ready to join him forever meeting him face to face.
