Marion, Thirty one years ago you were put in our lives and you were loved so very much by all that knew you. You were delivered by God "an angel" to your mom, who was in love the very first moment she laid eyes on you. The two of you have a bond that can never be broken on earth as well as in heaven. You are deeply missed and will never ever be forgotten. Til we meet again, be at peace and enjoy your new life as that angel in heaven. Heaven is your home now . I love you so much!❤

Marion, I'm blessed to have known you and even more blessed that we share a fantastic and brilliant, sweet and kind hearted son, who reminds me of you so much. I'm upset that you're life ended so early but the time you did spend alive, I know that it was not taken for granted on purpose. You had a peacefulness about you and a huge heart. You forever impacted my life. Love always and forever rest in paradise my friend.

Marion, We still don't know exactly know what happened to you. All we know is you are gone and we all miss you so much. I know you are with Mama and God. You will never hurt or be hurt again. I know you are in good hands. You were always a sweet boy and grew to be a sweet man. We all love you and will miss you so much.

Marion, I wasn't expecting you, but you appeared in my life at exactly the right moment. You have been the most refreshingly forthright person I have ever met. I will forever be grateful for the many things you have taught me in the heartbreakingly short time that we had together. I hope that you know how much you matter in my life because you have had a disproportionately large impact on me based on our time together. You are one of the most intelligent, sweet, fascinating people I've ever met. You pushed me completely out of my comfort zone and I have grown so much because of that. I hope I brought peace and love to you at the end of your life. Point blank, I just adore you Marion. You are desperately missed. I love you.

December 29, 2017

Marion, you will be forever missed and loved. Words cannot express how empty our hearts are knowing that you are no longer with us on this earth. The only thing that makes me smile is knowing that you are in a better place and you are no longer suffering. See you again in Heaven my dear cousin.
