John So sorry to hear about Marie's passing. I remember her vividly from the good old days at the Travelers - feisty, dedicated, intelligent, fun and always there to help out. She was one of the go-to people for me when ever I needed financial or budget information. She was a wonderful person, mother and wife to you. Remember the good times.....and take care.
