I have had so many fond memories of spending glorious days at the Morlock family farm. Aunt Kitty and Uncle Tony made all the childhood adventures Possible. We rode the horse, watched the cows being milked, tried to gather chicken eggs, read stacks and stacks of comic books, played Monopoly games that went on and on and on. We were supplied with treats of popcorn and homemade lemonade by Aunt Kitty. She had us help pick vegetables in the gigantic garden. I loved the windmill that was near the back porch. It worked! We could get water. She taught us that hard work can also be so much fun!

The family of Aunt Marie: We have so many wonderful memories....During our many summer visits when growing up, she was always so pleasant and happy. She taught us how to make fudge! Her athletic nature was evident in the many outdoor games we played while visiting. She was a part of our lives and we are better for it.

Aunt Marie was also so special. She loved having us at her home when we were kids (and adults too). I admired her positive outlook on life. She will be missed by everyone who knew her.
