‘Marie was a great friend and teammate at OLPH and Notre Dame. I have so many memories back to 4th grade of slumber parties and times at the Provident Lake pool and playing Boggle with Mrs. Laskowski and almost beating All Saints in the 8th grade basketball tournament (my bad, not hers!). She was gracious and fun, and she shared much generously. My condolences to Kyle and David and Katy, as well as all of the Fridl clan.’
‘Now your days have reached their number,
and in death you sweetly slumber.
God has called your spirit to be free,
nevermore with anguish laden, you have reached the
heavenly kingdom. Don’t you hear the angels ring those golden bells for our Marie.
You will always be young. You will always be beatiful. I love you and I miss you.
To Kyle, David, Katy, and all Marie’s family, you are in my prayers during this difficult time.

“To live in hearts we leave behind Is not to die.” ~Thomas Campbell
I am so sorry for your loss of Marie. I cherish and think often of our Big crazy family reunion, back in the late 60’s or early 70’s I believe it was. Marie’s bright smile shined like a beam from the heavens. Even as a kid myself I loved how much her energy was boundless and glorious. I am with you all in prayer, spirit, heart, and soul always. XOXOXO…
Love,
josie’
