2/2 ...already missed by me and by millions, we thank you for your heartwarming article about Marion.

I shared a few years with the very funny very talented Marion Ramsey as a songwriter. Her compositional skills were highly underestimated. We could write nearly every genre of music together, which spoke volumes about her open-heartedness to all walks of life. Marion is 1/2
