Dianne Erickson Eberhard says
I knew Marian many years ago when I lived in Fairfax. We were members of the same church and our husbands were in Jaycees together. My memory is filled with many good times spent at their home and ours. When my first husband died suddenly, it was Marian who offered her home for the supper before his wake. She was always such a good friend! My sympathy goes out to her family, especially her husband, George. I will keep your family in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
