I have so many special memories of Marion, Harold, David, Roger, Marla and Mark when my wife and I lived right across the street from them in Sweet Springs. We were new coach and elementary teacher in town. The Meyer family became immediate friends. We shared many great times on the patio and at the Tri-City Country Club dances and golf outings. The family was always so welcoming to us and fun-loving. I consider them life long dear friends. Some stories to tell! We did have fun. Blessings to the family and many friends.
Dave and family, our sincerest condolences on the loss of your mom. From the Difference Makers, and Friday morning coffee friends.
Our prayers are with you all at this time, Your Mom had a great life, surrounded by a great Family,
Burt & Rachel Sundvold
SO, SO, SO SORRY, MARLA & FAMILY!!!
