Marion was one of the nicest ladies I knew. I met her about 15 years ago and couldn't believe her energy and love for people. She truly loved her church family and the Lord. I will miss her dearly and will always consider the way she lived her life till the very end an inspiration to me to follow. My condolences to her family. She loved you. Janette DuPuis.

My Aunt Marian was the sweetest person. She loved dogs and loved to travel. Always going on a new adventure. Came for a visit in her late 80's. I am going to miss her greatly.

So sorry to hear about Marian. Always enjoyed visiting with her. Enjoyed visiting with her on Mobil Credit Union bus trip to Lake Charles. Jan and I enjoyed playing bingo with her at some of the Exxonmobil fun days. Always enjoyed seeing her at Bandos restaurant, when she and my aunt Narnie Roll would have a reunion with some of their school friends. My aunt Narnie Roll and Marian have been life long friends. She will be deeply missed by my aunt and my family. She was always a bright spirit. Praying for family. Greig and Jan Woddail.:pray::pray::pray:

such a kind sweet lady. She and Mr. R. E. Dragoo made my time at Magnolia a great place to work and learn many life lessons. They are, and will be missed by many. I pray that my Grandson is as fortunate as I at Exxon to work with such really good people.
