To Marion’s family…. my name is Susie Chinn and Harry Amick was my step-father. As you all know, Marion and Harry were buds! Centennial Class of 45 classmates and forever friends. Harry passed three years ago. Your mom was adorable… I loved her spunk and energy. I got such a kick out of her and Harry they way that would call each other EVERY morning between 9-9:15 am to make sure they were each still alive! LOL… It was so very sweet how they would check on each other… go to functions, make each other laugh. I am sorry to hear of her passing. We kept in touch for a while after Harry’s death… but I know she had her own health issues and was moved around and I lost track of her….. I feel so bad. I just wanted you to know how much Harry loved her and their life long friendship…. she was a special woman and I was honored to know her and thankful she gave Harry so much joy. They were a hoot and I am sure they are stirring things up in heaven! Love to all, Susie
