We have fond memories Marcia and family visiting us in Maine several times when Matt and Amy were young. Lovely to have those memories.

Deepest sympathy to Matthew, Amy and family,

Marcia was there for my earliest memories at the Anne Sullivan Center and was gracious enough to help me with a social work paper in grad school. I am not sure I would've known what a social worker actually did if I didn't know her, and I hope I can leave such a legacy.
