...an 8/17/03 Email from Marcia's Husband, Bernie

Marcia passed away on August 4, 2003 from complications of pneumonia. It was the second episode since the beginning of the year. She fought a valiant battle but could not beat the infection this time.

We would have celebrated our 43rd anniversary on the 6th of August. She was a woman of valor that gave me all these years of happiness plus two beautiful daughters and four grandchildren. She will be missed by everyone.

She was looking forward to her 50th high school reunion and a return to Huntington, which is also my birthplace...But I moved to Florida in my early childhood and after our marriage have been here ever since.

She was truly a beautiful woman that always had a smile on her face and loved life to the fullest.

Sincerely....Bernie Applebaum
