Marcia was a classmate from elementary school in Bovey to graduation at Greenway. I remember her as having the most beautiful singing voice. It was a joy to hear her sing. I’ve only seen her once since high school and she still had that great smile and immense kindness about her.
Peace be with you,
Marj
