ANNOUNCEMENTS

I wrote the announcement about Marlene Friedman's internment. I asked her to return here last March for her final treatment and stayed involved until the end. At that time she was in Boston and Dana Farber and Mass General told her there was no more to be done. She certainly did fight and visited many hospitals in many cities to seek out new treatments. The cancer was discovered in her brain in October but in the end the Lung Cancer killed her. She was smart and meticulous and every single wish was in order in the end. I saw to some of those wishes. If you want to discuss anything or ask questions please call email me at Rhondagsanderson@gmail.com That's my personal email. Best to all. Happy New Year! Rhonda Rapport Sanderson

MARLENE’s private internment was held Thursday December 30th. Family only and 2 friends of the family. I was one of them. Marlene returned to Chicago area for treatment at Northwestern in last March.
I helped her look for living space near Northwestern but it was right in the midst of first lockdown. The city didn’t appeal to her for that reason and she chose a townhouse in Northbrook. I went from the city out to NB often. And was with her for 2 treatments at NW. All spring and summer we went to the field near her place and let our dogs Mork and Rocky play. We spoke daily, several times a day. At beginning of December it was clear she was approaching the end. Lung cancer had spread to brain. She was smart as a whip and when I lived in Boca we were together a lot in 2015 and 2016, she taught me so much about negotiating for cars and homes. I will miss here every day!!
