I’m going to miss my friend so very much. We shared laughter and tears, and she was always there to be an encouragement. To me she was a perfect example of what a Christian should be. Hugs and love

Marcella’s passing will leave a hole in my heart. She was so very proud of her children and grandchildren talked about them frequently. A better person you won’t find. Marcella had such a strong bond with her Lord and Savior. She exemplifies what a true Christian should be. Marcella was a very hard worker; always willing to help and a great hugger as well! My condolences go to all her family as well as her church family…love you always
I will miss my friend. She always knew when i needed a pep talk. Praying for strength and love for her family as they deal with her loss. Love you my friend💕

Our deepest sympathies to all of Marcella’s family. I had “Marcie” in Social Studies class in Delavan High School, and I still remember her sweet smile and happy, pleasant personality. She was such a wonderful young lady. She will be greatly missed! God bless her memory!!!! Butch and Gail Ottesen

There are so many things going through my mind right now, but the saddest part is going to have to say goodbye to my sister, she always had the best advice for my questions, always had a ile when I needed it, she loved unconditionally anyone who loved her to, she was always there when you needed a shoulder to cry on and always had kind words to lift you up. I miss her already so much, I send my love and deepest sympathies to my brother in law Max, Miguel, Sarah, Araceli, Steven, and all the grandkids, I love all of you and I’m praying that God gives you the strength and comfort you need in this time of sorrow, also to my siblings, nieces and nephews, may God also give us all strength and comfort in this difficult time, and for all of us the strength to go on day after day.
Thank you to everyone that has given support to her family, and for the continued prayers, they are greatly appreciated. Rest in peace my sweet sister, I love you, miss you but I will never forget you.
So sorry for your loss. She was a fantastic lady!
Marcella was my classmate at DHS. She was the kind of person that radiated kindness. Even at my young and immature age I could see how Marcella carried herself with grace and dignity. Just a nice and genuine person that was impossible to not admire and like. God bless Marcella and her family.
Marcella would go across the street to visit my mom. Day that mom died Marcella asked it she could help us and she dialed all of the phone numbers of people we needed to call about mom. It was the old wheel type dial and she made no mistakes like we would have. She was a very nice lady.
May she rest in peace.
