Not sure what to say?





Marie, what a special person you were!! Curious, Brave, Mischievious, Dedicated, Determined, Sweet, and with a twinkle in her eye. Marie and I knew each other in Durango for about the last 15 years. I used to take her to the Bar D Wranglers Chuckwagon Supper Show.... she would always have to get there early so she could get the front row table.
We went every summer for many years and also attended their Christmas Show in Dec. every year.... always on the front row!! I will miss her always, and think of her often.
