Marie was a truly special lady and a rare gift to so many.
She captured the hearts of others with her radiant spirit, glowing smile and contagious laughter.
After a chat with Marie the day was always better and brighter.
Her legacy of kindness, laughter and love will live on in all of us who were lucky to know her.
Rest in gentle peace Marie.

To Ray and Shawn and all of the Little & Scott Families.
You have my deepest sympathy.
Marie was a very dear friend of mine whom I will miss greatly.
We spent many years dancing to good old country music and
Marie even taught the steps to many Seaforth and area people.
Keep this thought close to your heart:
When someone you love becomes a memory,
the memory becomes a treasure.

Ray and Shawn I am so sorry and so sad to hear of Marie’s passing. We were best friends when we were teenagers and have kept in touch off and on through the years. She has been on my mind lately and I meant to give her a call as we hadn’t been in touch for awhile, I wish I had tried harder to make time for that call. I will miss her.

The heartbreaking news of Marie’s passing exemplifies just how fragile life is. It was just by chance I happened to bump into Marie at the grocery store in Seaforth a few years back. It felt so good to reminisce about the good times & laughs we shared in our high school days. Marie’s warm smile, sense of humour & the kindness she extended to everyone will be part of her legacy.
Heaven is shining a little brighter now with Marie in it.! You all have my heartfelt sympathy.
