To Ruth, John, Vicki,
So sorry to hear of your loss of your Mother. She was a very special person. I always looked forward to speaking with Marquetta at the 'Gustafson' reunion. She will be missed. Sorry we couldn't make it to the service. But both Bonnie & I are in the 'high risk' category. We will keep you all in our prayers.

Eleming Family,
When I think of Markie I think funny, friendly and having compassion for others. I know these are characteristics that she passed on to her family. I’m sure she was very proud of you all. Praying for peace and comfort for you during this time. God Bless, Janet Clarkson.

My deepest sympathy to Vicky and the family. "Marky" was my oldest friend. We went to Elston school and Jeff High together, sang in the church choir, worked at the potato chip factory, detaseled corn together and so many other thing that I can't remember them all. I shall miss her and hope to meet here again someday in a better place.
