Marie was a great person and a wonderful aunt. She was so warm and caring and had a great sense of humor. She will be missed by many. Heaven is a much better place now that she is there...and running the place. :-)

Mrs. Waddington was my best friends' mom and have known her for 37 years. She was always a warm and sensitive person who always had a smile on her face. She was easy to talk to and I considered her to be like a second mother to me growing up. She was a loving and caring person and I am grateful that I had the pleasure of knowing such a wonderful woman. She will be greatly missed.
