Words cannot describe Marlene’s character as she exceeded every category of life, with vigor and enthusiasm! She truly loved life and lived it to the fullest! Things that i remember was the love and consideration she had for everyone. I remember so many great memories growing up with my cousins, being with them almost every week and Marlene was always there for us no matter what it was. I will cherish all the wonderful memories my cousins and I made together and spending time with the family. Her complete love, dedication and well being for her family illuminated in everything she did. Her daily actions clearly showed this without any doubts. Her faith and acts of service was another priority in her life and again she exceed in this. We all will miss Marlene deeply, but are blessed with the strong mother, servant of God and memories that warm our hearts forever.
