Marcia, will always be remembered in my heart as a sincere, honest, open~minded person and dear friend 😇, may the Lord rest , bless and keep her soul for all eternity and give her family comfort in their Time sorrow . I will miss your wit my friend of 24 years 😔.
When I first met Marcia, I thought maybe she was mean because she was so blunt and outspoken. This was the opposite of the truth. In fact, Marcia was the kindest and most helpful person out of everyone that I worked with. Marcia was blunt, honest, and real. She was herself all day, every day and she didn’t care what anyone thought of her. I aspire to be like that one day. Marcia would give me rides sometimes. My husband even liked Marcia and he doesn’t like strangers often. She was an amazing person. I was blessed to know her. I am praying for her family daily. My heart breaks for them, but I know a piece of her is still with each of her loved ones until they can be together again ❤
David and family,
So saddened to hear of the loss of your mom. Marcia was a wonderful nurse and amazing person. We are all Blessed for having encountered her in our lives. Prayers and Hugs.

My thoughts are with Marcia’s family—I have fond memories of get-togethers with Marcia and the rest of the Lee clan when we were kids—camping, hiking, and fishing in the mountains of New Mexico during family reunions. My condolences to you all, Marcia and Mary Ann’s cousin, Judith Lee Burkart
