December 30, 2011
When I was growing up, I spent as much time at the Mutschalls' house as my own, so Marie was my "borrowed" mom for a while. I was fascinated by her, and, as an only child, by the tumult of a big family and all the goings-on. I will always remember her as warm, funny, eccentric, and a lover of nature - and as a woman who welcomed a lonely neighbor girl into her busy life.
