Lt. Sopper is a very important person in my life. While in the Navy she assisted JAG at the Washington Navy Yard to give me the freedoms that I have today. I knew her as a friend and a life-saver. She is a rememberance to me everyday that life is to short and to live everyday like it's your last. I think of her not only this day, but other important days that are personal to me. I will never forget. Thank you.

Marion,

Another year has passed and I can only imagine the pain that is still in your heart. I will always think of you and your family on this day and always send you a message to let you know that you will always be in my prayers.

Warm Regards,

Margaret Webb (Tibbs), your former tenant from Bartlett

Tammy, I think of you often. Mari-Rae was a special person and I have fun memories of both of you. I send very special thoughts and prayers today and always for you and your family. I regret that I did not know prior to Mari-Rae's service of her death. I've heard from the gymnastics community that it was an awesome tribute. I hope you are doing well. Stay strong.

I take you 3 blocks to the ocean in the form of your Denver law school coffee mug almost every morning & think about what might have been. I know you\'re enjoying the view from up there, especially of your nephew, Max. We all so miss you. We are actually attending a 9/11 service at the local synagogue, since it\'s the only 9/11 service being held in our area. Love always, Dad & Sue

It's been eight years since that awful day, but I still remember it like yesterday. Mari Rae, thanks for helping put Iowa State gymnastics in the minds of NCAA gymnastics fans. I loved to read your posts about your favorite team and gymnastics in general at the gymn.com college gymnastics message boards. I would've been one of your team's fans on the stands at UC Santa Barbara since I had driven from Orange County to UCSB (150 miles) to watch men's and women's gym meets from 1986 season till they ended. I knew previous coaches as well. There is no doubt in my mind you would have succeeded in your quest to save the program and be a great head coach. Just what you sacrificed to make your dream happen is enough for me to always look up to you and call you a hero. God bless your family and friends.

Mari-Rae and I attended Naval Justice School together in 2000-2001. I remember her very well as smart, funny, and engaging. I ran into Mari-Rae in DC in March 2001 at a restaurant in Washington DC. I think of her often and know that she continues to be in God's care.

Mari-Rae has been on my heart all evening. I was a secretary at the law firm in D.C. where Mari-Rae worked shortly before she died. My prayers still go out to you her family and pray you are doing well as I was thinking of her.

As a former alum of Fremd and aquaintance, I think of Mari-Rae every year at this time. What a wonderful thing you are doing with the memorial gymnastics fund. You should be very honored that your daughter is remembered with such high regard. My blessings and prayers go to you ,the family for your remarkable loss.

She accomplished so much in her short life. Talk about a well rounded person with so much life and so much to give. She was on a fast track with a great career in law and the military, and riches could soon come her way. But instead, she followed her dreams to be a coach. Awesome. She will always be an inspiration to me and others.

I wrote this 9-11 song and one of my inspirations was Mari Rae, such a brave a beautiful soul. God bless her awesome family and friends.

God Bless! I didn't know Mari-Rae, but she and all the other victims are heroes. I will never forget.

Marion,
It's Margaret who rented your house in Bartlett. I think of you and your family every year and I know it won't bring Mari-Rae back, but she is a hero in our family. I told my kids all about you and what I remembered about your daughter. I hope some day to see her memorial in DC; it's the least I can do since you did so much for my family.
May God bless you and your family on this difficult day. It is a day that I'll never forget and just knowing you keeps it closer to my heart.

Sincerely,

Margaret and Eric(Webb), Katelyn and Jackson(Tibbs)
