Sweet dreams dear friend and flights of angels sing thee to thy rest. Phil Johnson, Corpus Christi, TX I had the amazing ride of enjoying Miss Marian onstage and off at Ball State University Theatre for several blessed years. She had the uncanny ability to reach across boundaries and get to your essence with little effort and no resistance. She defined sultry, smooth, moxie. She was warm and loving and one of the most talented actresses I've ever had the pleasure of working/playing with. So strong, so sensational, so spectacularly, uniquely her own self. I adored you then, and as these fresh tears attest, even now, some twenty-seven years since THE DRUNKARD in our little Studio Theatre...May God rest you and bless you and yours. Till we meet... J.R.

Love you for ever, claire hank, oak lawn, il I was going through some boxes this past weekend and came across some achieves of my Ball State Theater day in the early 80's. I decided to google some of my co stars during those days. I sadly came across Marian’s site. I am so saddened to hear of her passing. We appeared together in "Suddenly Last Summer" at the Studio Theater. Marian was Catherine and I played her brother, George. What an honor it was to appear in a production with her so early in my Ball State Theater career. She was such a talented actress. I always admired her talent. Rob Loy, Tampa, FL I am so sorry to hear of Marian's passing. I hadn't visited her site in a long time and that is such shame. She was a great lady who EMailed me from the Televines and got me signed up on her website. Rest in Peace, Dear Marian. Hank Lewis, Houston, TX I thought about you a lot this weekend, Marian.

Buff Lee, Chicago, IL I watched Elvira (in the spirit of halloween) the other night.

Love you so much, clairehank@webtv.net, Oak Lawn, IL Oh, how I miss you. Loved the desert in California. You were with us. Love you. claire hank, oak lawn, il Good to read Josh's post. I remember Dealer's Choice so well and was glad to have been able to help with it. Buff Lee, Anaheim, CA In the mid-eighties, Marian directed a play called "Dealer's Choice" that I was fortunate enough to be in. Marian charmed me instantly with her infectious energy and enthusiasm, her smile, her wittiness, her unerring instincts, her beauty. She remained a good friend until I left Chicago in 1990, and spoke to her only occasionally after that. News of her passing hit hard, even after all these years, and my life is the lesser for lack of her. Josh Mandel, Albany, NY I just read a fanfiction about one of my favorite bands and one of the characters in it was suffering from cancer. Another character brought them bandanas, and it reminded me of when I let you have my hat up on Dolly's roof, the Union Jack hat, because the summer sun was too much for you. Nadia, Chicago, IL I talked to Dylan last night. His voice is so deep now, so grown-up. He's going to come over soon and see my new apartment and we're going to play Nintendo...just like old times.

Thinking of you always. Ric Lee, Chicago happy birthday, sweetheart, I love you, mom claire hank, oak lawn, il I told Marian she was like a cousin to me.
