Marsha loved everyone. If you knew her, there’s no doubt she loved, worried, and prayed for you at one point or another. In every situation she put herself last to make sure everyone else was taken care of and happy. She worried, loved and prayed for everyone and over every situation. Her hobbies were doing things with her kids, grandkids, great grandkids, husband, and friends. It really didn’t matter what the activity was as long as it brought everyone together.
Marsha loved praising, worshiping, and loving the Lord. She loved attending church and was so thankful for her church family at Christ Church in Oakdale. One of her favorite songs was “Goodness of God”.
Marsha was the most loving, caring, and selfless person you could have ever been blessed to know. She will be missed so much by so many.
