My Sister Mary Marks passes on.

Mary Katherine Marks was born in Visalia California on November 15,, 1950 to James and Mabel Marks. She passed away in Boulder, Colorado on September 13, 2019 at age 68. She was a fantastic artist/sculptor and jewelry maker. She owned a graphics and print shop in Sparks and Rocklin where she trained show horses and rode dressage. She then moved to Prescott, Arizona to work for famous sculptor John Coleman.

She was preceded in death by her parents James and Mabel, and her brothers James and Roy. She leaves behind sisters Juanita Paternoster, Kathleen Martin, Michelle Marks and Tricia Craig. She also is survived by her brothers Michael and Richard Marks. She leaves behind her son Aaron and his wife Erin in Prescott, Arizona.

Mary was the embodiment of a free Spirit. She spoke her mind and lived her life firm in her convictions. She was caring in times she was in need and would help others and do without herself. Her memorial will be on November 15, in Sacramento.

In her memory just be kind to someone today and help those you come across with patience.

Richard, I wasn't aware your sister had died until just now. Losing a sibling is something you never get over. I hope you 're healing and doing okay. Best,
