Marien was a bright light to all she came in contact with. I had the pleasure of getting to know her through Marvin Turetsky. When my Marvin died, they took me out to Paramus to the Cemetery with a dozen red roses. Marien and I rekindled our friendship shortly before she died. I cherish those conversations. I miss her, hope her family realizes what a pure gem she was. I feel her with me now as I face very serious health issues. May each of us reach out to others with love and kindness in her honor and memory.
