After the funeral, a very touching “halotti Tor" was held at the seclusive inside room of the Independence Holiday Inn. The memorial prayer was offered by our publication's editor. Dr. Stephen Szabó made a special characterization of Marianne Köteles by calling her 'The Magyar Ruth". One who was born into another nationality, but through her marriage to Bill, indeed materialized the saying of the Biblical Ruth. “Your people will be my people;" "Servant of God! Well done! Rest from your loved employ! You entered now into your Master's Joy!” MAGYAR HERALD A Review for Members of the Magyar Club Published by The Magyar Club of Cleveland President: MR.
