Dear Jeff, Deb and Family, you are held gently in my heart. I wish you peace in the love Marcia had for and shared with her family and close friends. Transformed, you will find her in the neon reflection of the hummingbird as it darts among the flowers in the summer sun. With loving kindness. -laurel

We are so saddened by this. Our prayers and condolences go out to all of Marcia's Family & Friends. Larry & I had worked with this beautiful person at Elco for 30+ years. She was my "Bestie" for years. We did so much together at work, after work, every weekend. She had taken me to her home in Platteville, WI where I had the pleasure of getting to know her wonderful family, as well as her stomping grounds of years before Rockford, IL. What a wonderful place to call home! I'm so glad she was able to get back to her place of wonderful escape before God said he needed her with him. Rest In Peace my wonderful friend ... We will miss you but Thank God we have many awesome memories of our time.
