    Marylin was a great friend and I will truly miss her as I do John her late husband. I met the Rosslands when I was working for a handyman company that they had contracted. They always asked for me on return jobs and were excited when I went into business for myself. John was comfortable to know that I would take care of his home for him and Marylin before he passed away. I truly enjoyed advising and helping Marylin with her "honey-do's" and minor repairs. I always enjoyed sitting down with her and just talking when I was finished working. She enjoyed the handmade gifts that my wife would give to her and I will treasure the moments of her delight in receiving those gifts. I am glad that Marylin and John were a part of my life and sad that they are both gone. But, I am even more glad that Marylin is very happy again and no longer alone now that she is back with her husband John.
