Marie met Shaun Varsos when they both worked at a movie theater in Bellevue. That movie theater later flooded and was turned into a shooting range where the two would go shoot guns together.
That anecdote took on a tragic irony when Marie’s brother, Alex Youn, got a phone call the morning of April 12.
“Shaun had shot Marie and my mother,” he says. “And at the time I didn’t know if they were alive or dead.”
Shaun had gone to Marie’s mom’s house in Lebanon and confronted Marie as she was leaving for work.
