Joanne, Karla, and family,
So sorry for your loss of a wonderful mother and lady. She will certainly be issed by everyone in your community.
I’m so sorry I was there this past family reunion to see everyone together before we lost 2 of the family’s most loved members. I didn’t know Charlie or Marcy too well but I know how much Marcy loved her family and learning more about our family lineage and Heritage and how much Charlie loved his classic cars and showing them at the family gatherings.. May you 2 rest in peace and be in every family gathering… You will be missed by all….
Wasn’t there**
My sincerest condolences and prayers for the Scott / White family and friends.
Joanne, Shawn, MB and family,
I’m so sorry for your losses. I wish I could be there to give you a big hug!
I imagine Mark is happy and needed some company. ❤️
I love you all. I can’t imagine going through everything you have in the last year. I call my mom regularly, so filling that void would be so very hurtful. Please call me, if you ever want to chit chat. Joanne and MB have my number.
Best wishes. I’ll be thinking of you all and praying ♀️ for you. ❤️

Always had a smile and good story from her travels. It was a joy to spend time with Marcy when we got together with the Warren County Genealogy group and the DAR. Enjoyed the stories, advice and encouragement she gave me. She will be missed! My deepest sympathies to her friends and family. May you all be comforted by shared memories and each other. God Bless.
