My heart is filled with sadness over the passing of Marion. She was such a kind and special lady. She was my daughter’s German Teacher and I can remember running into her in the parking lot on a few occasions in the morning. She was always filled with words of encouragement and had such nice things about my kiddo. It was obvious she loved teaching and loved children. My daughter, Marysha, and I will miss her dearly. My prayers go out to her family and to those she was close to. RIP. Dawn Watters
Marion was an extension of our family and we will miss her dearly. Our hearts go out to all the family in this time of sorrow.
Sending my love and support to Marion’s family. She was a very special woman who brought so much light into this world. I will always have fond memories of our adventures on horseback. Marion was a very special teacher and friend. She will be greatly missed.
Helmut,Sarah, Theodore & Till
We remember Marion with love and warmth in our hearts. Marion & Helmut were a loving part of our family for many years. May you have the comfort and peace that comes from God.
All our love.

Hallo,
I feel for Tobias, Sarah and Theo.
My thoughts are with you.
Sincerly,
Katja
My heart goes to an old friend Till and his brother and family! Your mother was a inspirational woman shes taught us sooo much and not only german life lessons as well and i’ll never forget all of the lessons she passes on and how she will live on through the love of her family and all that were graced with her presence!!!! this year has not been kind but it shows us how truly strong we are and how much these amazing people affected our lives in sooo many unspoken ways!!!! the Waldorf community will not be the same my love thought and good wishes are with u my dear old friend!!!!!!!!!!!
Marion was my sons teacher, but she was also an inspiration and a friend to our entire family. She will be missed a great deal and we will think of her often.
Finnegan would like Marion’s family to know that she taught his class a song about ducks where she slid/swam across the desks while singing and allowed the children to do the same.
Blessings to her family and loved ones.
My thoughts and prayers are going out to you Helmut and your family, I am sorry for your loss.
Betroffenes Schweigen herrschte in unserem Haus, als von ihrem Tod gelesen haben und es dauerte eine ganze Weile, bis wir Worte fanden um unseren Gefühlen Ausdruck zu verleihen. Es ist für uns noch immer unwirklich, dass Marion nicht mehr unter uns ist, war sie doch für uns eine ganz besondere, immer hilfsbereite Freundin. Wie viele schöne Stunden durften wir gemeinsam verbringen. Sie hat viel Liebe und Fürsorge hinterlassen und die Erinnerung an all das Schöne mit ihr wird in uns lebendig sein. Denn immer sind irgendwo Spuren ihres Lebens: Gedanken, Bilder, Augenblicke und Gefühle. Sie werden uns immer an sie erinnern und sie uns nie vergessen lassen. In Freundschaft nehmen wir Abschied von ihr und weinen. Sie war immer für ihre Familie da, hat stets geholfen und für den Zusammenhalt gesorgt. Haltet in diesen schweren Tagen zusammen – sie hätte es so gewollt. In den Sunden des Abschiedes voll Trauer und Schmerz sind unsere Gedanken bei euch, Toby, Till, Sarah, Theo und der ganzen Familie.
