My Mom walked through Heavens Gate at 11:45 AM, today. She was very peaceful and surrounded by her loving husband and family. I bent over and kissed her forhead as she let out her last breath. Caitlin and Ava, Lorin and Arlene, my husband Matt, and Malinda and her husband Carl were all circled around her as she left her earthly body. I am sure she is at this moment soaring through the Heavens with a huge smile on her beautiful face.......Taking in huge breaths of air without coughing or any more struggle. My Mom was the strongest, most beautiful person I have ever known. I am so hugely blessed to have been able to call her Mom. My girls were hugely blessed to be able to call her "Grammy". We are planning to have a celebration of her beautiful life sometime in the near future. When I have the date I will post it for everyone. Thanks again for all of your generous love and support. You all meant the world to my Mom. I love you Mom, Julie :)

  1. We were all truly blessed to have such a beautiful spirit in our lives. Marline loved life! She loved fun! She loved her family more than anything else! That is what was so heartwarming about her. She visited us many years ago, and it meant so much that she made room in her schedule to stop off in Humble. We had Margaritas and wonderful conversations and she made a video of our house to share with Grant and Pat - family first! She will be truly missed by all she touched, and our hearts will always break knowing she is no longer on this earth. I can only hope she is up there befriending my parents and having a great time. I know she will be watching over her family forever. Donna & Greg Hannah
