Condolences
"Aunt Mariann was a very sweet kind lovely lady. I always enjoyed sitting down and chatting with her whenever we saw each other which unfortunately was not very often in later years. She will be missed very much but is finally reunited with Uncle Al who I also really enjoyed talking to. We were so sorry to hear of her passing. May God Bless you all and may they rest in peace together for eternity. Hugs and prayers Susan and Larry Rogge Family"
