Marion is survived by his loving wife Irene Cedella McGee and his brother Richards three daughters - Connie McGee, Barbara Ellebrecht and Debbie Hyde.
Marion was an amazing writer and photographer. Also enjoyed playing practical jokes on many.
This man always had a twinkle in his eye and just a lil mischevious grin. I never heard him voice anything negative about anyone
He will be missed by many...
