My beloved aunt, was always there for our family. She was smart, funny, strong, brave, kind, a great aunt, a great mom and a great bubbee. I will miss her and know that I will always think about how she saved me from being homeless when I was 5 years old and my own parents couldn’t take care of me. She didn’t even think about it, she just took me in. I never really understood how much that saved me. Much love, Linda and God Speed my beloved Aunt Marline.
