Marie, known as "MeMe," an amazing woman, was a pillar of courage and faith to all who knew her. She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. Marie went to be with her Lord and Savior on Friday, Jan. 29, 2010, at age 90, surrounded by her loving family and friends. She was preceded in death by her husband of 56 years, Bill; and parents, Nicholas and Josephine Parrino. She will be missed by everyone whose life she touched in her own special way, but none more than her beloved daughter, Barbara "Boo" Long and her husband, Kerry. She is also survived by three grandchildren, Kellie Long Bouquet and her husband, Jason, Kevin Long and his wife, Denise, and Keith Long; five great-grandchildren, Hunter, Hagen and Hailey Long, and Collin and Caroline Bouquet.

She is also survived by two sisters, Lucille Vidrine and her husband, Thomas, and Patsy Stevens and her husband, Van; and two brothers, Nicholas Parrino and his wife, Janice, and Tony Parrino and his wife, Crystal; and a sister-in-law, Dorothy Jean Horne.

It is during these most difficult times that you rediscover the meaning of family and friends and she was truly blessed with the best of both. The family wishes to thank everyone who visited and thought of them through their prayers during her time of illness. A special thanks to Jessica Young, Roxanne Davis, Martha James, Michael Efferson and Shelby Criss, five loving friends who helped care for MeMe during her illness. They were God sent.
