Budd: I still remember the 1st time I actually met your mom and dad; it was boating on the river of course and I told David I was afraid of her; “that’s Marcia (Edwards) Hemsley from Weirton – she’s the only woman I know who drives, what I thought was a Harley…she’s a hard butt.” Later when I told her she laughed so hard cuz it wasn’t a Harley and OMG! I think your mom was afraid of her own shadow! There were so many times I could get her to be weak and cry w/me. Your mom loved you and your friends so much and she knew they all loved and enjoyed her company as well. You need to be strong Budd. It won’t be easy but take 1 day at a time. You have so many friends you can depend on for courage. Marcia Marcia Marcia will surely be missed. She was an sweetheart here and is 1 of Gods Angels now.
