She is also survived by 10 grandchildren; 16 great-grandchildren; one brother-in-law; one sister-in-law; several nieces and nephews; and so many wonderful friends.

The family suggests that memorials be made to Hospice of the Big Country, West Texas Rehabilitation Center, the Coleman Public Library or the charity of your choice. The family would also like to extend a special thank you to Marian's dear friend, Val Garza, and his wife, Betty, for their support and comfort to her for so many years.
