Marsha and Lee always looked forward to taking their family on vacation to North Dakota and Red Lake to visit all the family. They loved visiting, having a few, with a lot of laughs and great memories.
Marsha was a hard worker all of her life. When you were around her, you were a hard worker too. Marsha was honest to a fault, but always meant well. She just wanted the best for everyone. Marsha was very loving, cared so much and would do anything for her children and grandchildren.
She loved watching documentaries on true crime. Her favorites were “Unsolved Mysteries” and “Life Below Zero.” She liked doing crosswords, jigsaw puzzles, taking care of her plants and going shopping.
