Marie was a long time friend of my mother, Helene. My family and the Cavadas family were next door neighbors in Ann Arbor. I have many memories. I babysat for Marie's children.

I did not know Marie except through her sister, Angie. I know she came from a loving family. I offer my condolences to all who loved Marie. Angie says she is now at peace and for that I thank God. I grieve for those who loved her, who will miss her. God speed Marie.
