Marion Stokes Obituary, Death – Marion Stokes a beloved sister, friend, wife, and mother has reportedly died as confirmed on a social media post made by her very close friend ‘Jamie Hanks ‘, the cause of her death has not been known to us at the time of this report.

The post reads thus “Never in a million years would I have imagined burying her now.. deep down, a part of me feared losing her to her demons.. but not like this and not in the scenario we’ve been in in the past two weeks.. though I’ve appreciated her soft angelic exit.. to sit with her and hold her hand while still being able to is something I’ll forever cherish. Not everyone is able to heed the warning.

She always told me “Jamie, you’re not really an alcoholic..” a part of me gets embarrassed over ever identifying and how not actually anonymous I was, but then I would’ve never met Mar.. (or any of the other kind people I met during that time.) I would’ve never encountered her exactly when I needed her…I can’t put into words how much of an impact Marion Stokes made in my life in the little blip of time I had here with her.

Mar said it herself, “We’re spiritual beings and we all have a soul and a purpose. We all came from somewhere and we’re not on earth for nothing.” She was NOT on earth for NOTHING. She sure was SOMETHING!!! This angel girl allowed me to appreciate true love in friendship, and never left me until she had no other choice.. though I know she never had a choice from the jump.. this hurts so bad.

I never wanted this for her, no one did! I find peace in knowing she’s not fighting anymore. She no longer has to. I know it’s been a long road for this sweet soul here on earth, 33 short years wasn’t long enough for us.. but I look forward to finally getting to have that diet Dr.Pepper with her and granny since we never made it to her grave like we planned to..

I will NEVER forget her.. I’ll think of her spirit with each future hobby lobby trip I take.. (we had many) I’ll miss her calls just to tell me what she’s doing with Mango or to ask me how life is, and her tell me about hers. I’ll miss being able to pick up my phone and know she will answer and be ready to listen to whatever I had to say.

I’ll miss her saying she wants to see me, and then catching up and her asking me “what you wanna do?! Let’s go do something, or let’s go get some food and I can cook for you!”.. and I’ll long for her presence with each time I whip out the karoke machine from now on. Most of all.. I’ll miss her words.. she sure had a way with them. Forever and ever in my heart she will be.”

***Funeral Details will be released in the future, this post will be updated when family release date.
