    My condolences to all the Hulley family. Oh what fun it was working with ‘Dolly’ at the Supertest, but so very hard to keep up to her. I am so grateful for the opportunity to catch up with her at her birthday party in April. She was truly an amazing woman, and one we should all aspire to be like. I am sure you have so many wonderful memories of happy times. Cherish them all! I hope when you look at her grandchildren and great grandchildren you find her sparkle and her smile. R. I. P. Marion. You have earned this rest.

    Dear family of Dolly
    I have fond memories of when Dolly worked in the gas station in Seaforth and my mother (Gerdie Beuerman), her cousin , and myself used to stop in in the mid 1960&&single&&s for a black cherry ice cream cone for about 10 cents (which she used to load up extra for us). Her sister Helen Hudson was a frequent visitor to our farm, and wow her (Dolly&&single&&s) picture now really reminds me of Helen. My deepest condolences goes out to the family.
