Marilyn was such a great friend to my mother, especially at Friendship Village and after. I was always thankful for their special bond. She will be missed by many, I´m sure - a great lady.

We will miss our cousin Marilyn. I always loved seeing her at the Rosser family events and visiting her at Lakeside. My family will continue to treasure her piano.
