Marie was my best friend (and I am sure others will say the same). I had the good fortune to have a last name that began with Y, so I was grouped with Marie. We swapped being president and vice president for years. Our greatest adventure was 10th grade year with homeroom. I won't say his name but our homeroom teacher left us in charge each morning. One day the class put us up to finding out where he went. We sneaked out and followed him to the stage where he kept a bottle of liquor. We watched him take a drink. As we were backing out, one of us knocked over something. He yelled, "Who's there?" Marie looked at me and said "Run!" We made it back to HR before him, breathless, reported to the class and then tried to act normally. He came in shortly, stayed in homeroom with us for a few days after that and then decided we were not going to rat on him, so he left us again. There were many other fun, memorable times with Marie that I will always treasure. She was awesome, so nice, kind, smart, funny, absolutely amazing. I will miss you until I see you again. I will always love you.
