In older times, the days before "little" Ron and I got married, we did the kinds of things 20 year olds do. I don't need to elaborate, but let's just say we were probably a handful. I remember Ron liked to BBQ in the front yard of the Scotts Valley house, especially when the "p's" were out of town.
Much could have been said, but Marsha always seemed to take it in stride. "Boys will be boys," she would say, and she loved hers--all of them. I feel a lot like one of the boys too! She took me and fed me and always made me feel like a part of the family. Ron's place was like a second home, and Marsha a second mother to me.
I'll have more to say when I clear this lump from my throat, and the fog clears. In the meantime, I love you Marsha and I will miss my second mom.

When I feel the softness of a gentle breeze,I will think of you. When I remember your glowing smile, my heart will be touched. And,when I think of that 20second rule we shared while cooking dinner,it'll bring laughter to my soul. You have welcomed me into your precious family and I will forever be blessed.You just dont know what you did,because you're stuck with me now.You will always remain a part of my life through memories and life itself.The talks I shared with you is a gift I will always treasure.I will miss that about you,as I will miss not seeing you anymore. But the mind can keep alive what is no longer here and one can see in dreams what has left this earth. Now,you're in a better place,no more illness,no more pain.It's God's turn to have you.What a journey you are forever in. From time to time I will still share a moment or two of a small conversation with you,even if only in thought. A precious hug your way.The pleasure has been all mine. -Margaret
Not seeing Marsha for several years, being many miles away and raising my own 4 children, the regret is mine for not taking the time. She and Ron were both wonderful people who helped me through a tough time in my life and opened their house to me for a few months. I will never forget that thoughtfulness. My best to Ron, Ronnie, Jeff, Craig and Ashley. B. Baker
