Marcia loved the Lord Jesus Christ. Her favorite scripture was "Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which though knowest not."

In 1989 she set up Prayertime Ministries International and sent out many prayer newsletters over the years.
She has traveled to Israel three times and has visited over 32 nations. Several times she served God in the Hawaiian Islands - she lived there more than 8 times. She was given to prayer. She loved our nation, prayed often for our presidents and for years was involved with the National Day of Prayer. She was a "watchman" who was not afraid.
Marcia loved music and played the piano and organ from age six, taking classical lessons for over ten years. She even traveled to Vienna, Austria where she enjoyed watching a performance of "La Boheme". For some 25 - 30 years Marcia performed for various churches and choirs. She was the Music Pastor and Singles Coordinator for a church in Colorado Springs, Colorado. She also loved children, and in more recent years, she enjoyed playing songs at the Christmas party at her apartment complex.
She was joyful and laughed a lot. She will be missed and loved forever! Aloha!
