Jennifer, I worked with your mom for a number of years at Merchants and Planters Bank. She sure did love you and Spencer. She was a joy to be around and we shared MANY laughs together. One of my best memories of Marcia was when the bank celebrated its 50th Anniversary and we had a full day of activities in downtown Newport. Marcia, Carla Stiger, Regina Lake and I created a group to perform and called ourselves the Supreme Bank Notes. We had a wonderful time preparing together and, on the day of the event, we were "dressed to the nines" in our sequined gowns, gloves and wigs while we sang Supremes songs with M&P words on the big stage!!! It was a great time together and just one of many special memories that I have with Marcia. I am so thankful to have known her and worked with her.
