Happy Birthday, Marla! You are a rare and beautiful treasure!

You love the many organizations dear to your heart!

I love your unique sense of style!

Marla embraces life knowing how each moment is so special and important! Resiliency is her middle name! Very few people have gone through the many health issues she has experienced and she keeps working to overcome adversities!

Watch out! She is very pretty darn competitive!

Her happiest moments are with her family!

She is a very hard worker and always willing to plunge in and get things done!

She is a good friend!

She can be fierce and passionate about causes of importance…such as social justice, truth, a better world and climate! She is fascinated about the “why” and wants to fix things. Even the lion is afraid of her!

She loves to learn new things!

Marla loves everything from family history to world history on so many levels!

She loves new experiences and adventures!
