JH July 19, 2022, 3:31 pm As saddened as I am to learn of Marci’s passing, I’m just as surprised to learn of it from my hometown paper. I knew Marci here in Minneapolis when she worked for Prince’s Paisley Park and I was a creative vendor. She was fun, kind, and cool. We discovered our Iowa connection early on but fell out of touch following those exciting years. RIP, MM.
