Some of the things that stood out to me about Aunt Marion was her deep Love for Jesus and her family, she seemed to love everyone no matter what, and her smile! Her smile could light up a room, she always seemed to be smiling!
Aunt Marion was like my second mom, I spent quite a few summers in Birchy Bay, she treated me just like one of her very own children, she loved me unconditionally, and disciplined me as she would her own children.
We created so many cherished memories during those summer months, and spent many hours at the swimming hole( I think I got that right.) I remember one summer in particular ( I do believe my own sisters were there at this time), we went to the swimming hole..... for way to long, when we got back to the house as the night fell we realized I had burnt my shoulders badly.... blisters actually, a lot of the details are kinda clouded.....I think someone peeled the blisters... I'm not positive on that part, but I remember her getting mad at the older girls for letting this happen, told them to go to the local store right in front of their house and buy a jar of noxema and that they were buying it with their own money! I remember her lovingly slathering that noxema on my shoulders, bringing instant relief!
Aunt Marion, you will be very much missed, your smile, your love and kindness. I am very certain you are where you have longed to be your entire life....looking upon your saviours face with complete adoration, reunited with your mom husband and other family members. I will love you always.
In loving memory,
Todd, Michelle and family.
