I worked with Marie at TWA in Sales and she was one of the kindest, most caring persons I ever had the pleasure of working with.
My sympathies to the Teets Family. I remember your mom well those many years ago on the farm!
God bless you!

Our sincere sympathies on Marie’s passing. How could we ever express enough thanks to the woman who provided both of us with opportunities not only to enjoy some of the most special times and FRIENDS of our lives but also to meet, become a couple, and eventually marry and have a family. She has touched countless folks in similar ways. We will so greatly miss Marie; there will never be another person in our lives like her. May God bless all of you, and please be assured of our prayers. – Sincerely and with love, Sue and Larry McGrath and Family (Tiernan, Moreen, and Brendan)
