My condolences to Marion’s family. She loved that I had mistaken her for Auntie Joan. I loved working with her at the bank and she was very special. She will be missed. I also loved watching Marion, Harry and her sisters roller skate, they were all mesmerizing. I couldn’t take my eyes off them. Rolanda Clark
