Miranda and I love you, and will miss you, Aunt Marsh. From sleepovers at your house when we were really little, to coffee visits at your house as an adult, your heart and home have always been open. You were funny, warm, and, above all, courageous.
My thoughts and prayers are with your children, grandchildren, great grands, and all of the members of our extended family. Xoxo
