Marrianne Temple Cruce, 47, of Monticello, joined her Heavenly Father on Saturday, March 20, 2010 at UAMS Medical Center in Little Rock. She was born July 28, 1962.

Marrianne worked for the Department of Human Services as an adoption specialist for the State of Arkansas. Through this, she was involved in the lives of countless children whom she found homes for. We who knew her best, will remember her for the love and happiness she shared with her daughter, Jessica. God was gracious in the answering of her prayer that she would live to see Jessica grow up.

Marrianne was a member of the First Baptist Church, where she served faithfully as a musician and vocalist. She was loved by her church, whom she considered to be her extended family. She was the daughter of the late Norwood Havis Temple and Willie Mae Sowders Temple.

Survivors include her husband, Randy; one daughter, Jessica and two sons, Brandon and wife Ashley and Benjamin, all of Monticello; her sisters, Kathy Hamaker and Linda Wilson and husband, Ronald; one brother, Billy Edwards Temple and wife, Barbara.
