So sorry to hear about the passing of your mother Marilyn. I knew Marilyn for about ten years. I did her manicures and she was the bright spot to my day. I have thought of her often over the years and she will be missed.

Sincerely,

Marilyn Arthur and I were classmates at St. James from 1944 to 1952. I lived on Millicent,where Art also lived. Marilyn lived on Bailey, .across from her Grandfather's Fuel company, which had a huge lump of coal in front of the building.Art and I walked past that lump every day for years. I last saw Paul and Marilyn in 2002 at our St. James 50th reunion. It is hard to lose a friend of 70 years. Go with God, Marilyn.

To the Braun Family,
Although I never had the pleasure of meeting Marilyn, she must have been a fine lady. The comments from those who knew her prove that. May she rest in heaven & remember, it is my belief that when you pray for her those prayers bounce back to you because she is in heaven. Believing that she is heaven will help you while you grieve.
I know,because it has helped me in my grief, after losing my wife 4/20/15. She is in my prayers.
Sincerely, Jim Davern, class of 1956.

Thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. There is little that I can say or do to ease your pain and suffering. May knowing that you are in the thoughts and prayers of many, bring a measure of comfort. Life is so short and those we love are gone from our lives too quickly. God's promise to empty the grave in the near future is found at Hosea 13:14, may the God of loyal love comfort you during your time of sorrow.
