From the Family of Marsha O'Neil

The family of Marsha O'Neil want to thank the staff, the prayer team and all of Crossroads for their thoughts, prayers and support in her loss. Crossroads meant a lot to Marsha and her friends here were a constant support to her during the challenges she faced. She loved her church family and was richly blessed by their presence in her life. As a matter of fact, she blossomed here and found a true place to call home. For everything you meant to Marsha we express our deepest gratitude. You all touched her life in ways you will never know.
