She was the best hugger ever!!!! There wasn’t a time I saw her that she wouldn’t say “do you want a hug” and she’d hug you so tight and meaningful. We’d smile and go about our day. Shed always thank me for my smile And I’d thank her for the hug!

We were such good friends in high school, shame how we lose contact as our lives go in different directions! Facebook brought us back but I never did get to go see her. She was the kindest sweetest person I have known. RIP Marie
