Sister Marshall was like an auntie to me. Her and my Mother Gloria Walker were close. We would go visit Sis Marshall almost every week. I enjoyed her house and her company. We loved and she was a wonderful woman of Christ.

Marie was such sweet and beautiful person. She was that cousin that always wanted to see family getting together and celebrating and loving on each other. When she moved away she was greatly missed at our Turrentine gathering. She will forever hold a special place in our hearts. And she will be greatly missed.

Martha Turrentine Williams

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
