I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Marian. We worked together years ago at the Willow Springs Western Wear store and became close friends. Though we lost communication due to going separate ways in our lives, I thought of her always and I am so sorry for her family to have lost such a beautiful, wonderful lady. My deepest sympathy.
