We are out of town this weekend & will not be able to attend the funeral . Marsha has been such a good friend for so many years. We first meet her on St. Mary’s mission trip to Africa over 18 years ago with Fr. Oriol. Then travel with Marga & Dick to her home town in Germany for three weeks which was a fun trip . Such a wonderful couple & we have great memories of our time together. I’m sure they are dancing again in heaven & drinking German wine. We loved them both so much. Our prayers & thoughts are with the family .Sandy & Jim Riese.
