So very sorry to hear about Marlene. We grew up in Derby and later worked together at Westmoreland. She was easily the smartest person in the room, My deepest sympathies and condolences go out to Marlene's family and may the memories that you share bring comfort and peace during this difficult time.
Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.
