Marion was also dedicated to her community volunteering with the blood drives.

People were always drawn to Marion. She had this wonderful and welcoming personality. Marion loved to engage with people, both professional and personally. She often found herself the go to person for great advice on life. Marion was kind, caring and had a great sense of humor.
