“In loving memory of Marian Gerlach, May you be comforted by the outpouring of love surrounding you. I will always cherish the fond memories I have with Jim & Marian, and be inspired by the endless love, care, and compassion they received from their daughter Peggy Hadley. Marian & Jim loved life, each other, and their family and though I was very sad to hear the news, I am comforted knowing Marian has reunited with Jim in Heaven. Praying for the families healing, comfort, strength and peace.”
