I was so shocked to learn of the passing of such a beautiful, positive lady and the sister of my dear friend.
I became acquainted with Marty and her Mother through her sister Vicki. Marty had also done some framing work for me before I moved to Florida.
I called Vicki from time to time and she would keep me up to date on what was happening with Marty. I just happened to call her yesterday and heard of her illness and passing.
When I got married in 2015 Marty and Vicki did a beautiful framing of our wedding announcement. This was such a wonderful surprise to me and my husband. We will always cherish it.
Vicki I will be praying for you a lot. She was your rock.
Your loving friend,
Georgie
