Marshall was a dear friend and his smile will be missed. Don and I always had such fun visits when he and Marilyn cam to Tucson. We are both better people for having known him. Our love goes out to Marilyn and their family. This is not an easy time but I pray you all find comfort in your faith that I know is strong. God Bless and keep you in his grace.
