Marion lived life to the fullest, loved to take risks, and had an insatiable appetite for adventure. Her interests were varied from photography to white water rafting but it was her family that meant the most to her. Marion inspired many and had an impact on all who knew her.

Marion was a good friend and helped through a very rough spot in my life while we were both in Phoenix. She will be dearly missed.
