Mariam is such a lovable and loving Ghristian; She has always been hospitable and generous with her friends. She will live in our hearts forever. We have known her since she and Marvin married and I always felt that their sons were part of our family.
I’m sure she and Marvin are together now, and one day we’ll meet them around the corner. Much love to Mark and Mike.

Thank you, Michael, for including me in the list of cousins informed about Miriam. I know you and all your family will miss her very much. Although I have not seen her for several years, I have many memories, since we were only two years apart in age, of playing with her at the annual Gordon reunions. At 90 years old, I will be unable to attend the memorial service or any future family reunions, but I wish I could. My Gordon heritage is very dear to me, as I know it was to Miriam. With sympathy, Ann Roddy Maguire, daughter of Lorena Elizabeth Gordon Roddy, who was a sister of Miriam’s father, my Uncle Horace.
