Thank you Lynda for  sharing this news. I was thinking about Marianna all weekend. I recall her gentle gracious smile,  and twinkle in her eyes. 
A beautiful, enriching soul, who welcomed me. 
With profound  gratitude for a life well lived.

Yesterday morning, there was a small East Coast earthquake whose epicenter was Sparta, NC and its neighboring town of Mt. Airy, NC, the hometown of Marianna and Bill Bailey.  Yesterday I sent a note to “our favorite Mt. Airy colleague”  thus the subject line below.  Marianna died that evening. 

 

Our care to the Bailey family in this earth-changing event in their lives, and celebrate the gift of Marianna’s  life to so many of us.   Lynda Cock 

 

Daughter Lynn Brailsford has posted some lovely photos on Facebook.
