Marlene Buffington was an amazing and incredible woman (and mother) who lost her life in a terrible battle with lung cancer.  We managed to raise nearly enough money to cover the out of pocket costs associated with her pre-health care expenses and I thank you all deeply for that!  We are going to try to fund raise a little more to make sure we have enough money for her estate attorney and memorial services.  If you would like to help the family right now so we can focus on mourning the loss of a great soul, we would forever be in your debt.
