Sur plusieurs de ses branches, usees, coupees et meme arrachees par la vie, j'ai observe: l'amour, l'amitie, le pardon, le partage, l'humilite, la joie, la force et le don de soi pour les gens qu'elle a touche, supporte, aime et accepte sans jugement. On a tous sentit son parfum, ecoute son refrain sous l'ombrage qu'elle nous a offert si ouvertement. Marise was like a tree. Her many branches worn, cut and broken in life continued to offer love, friendship, forgiveness, humility, joy and courage. Her gift of self strengthened those that she touched, supported, loved and accepted without judgement. We all have been captured by her essence, her song, and rested in the shade that she offered so willingly.
