I first met Marilyn at Rockville Assembly of God church service. She became a dear friend and loyal customer to me. I will miss our times and conversations together. We shared many of the same ideas and beliefs. We shared hobbies also. I will miss her and our fellowship through praying together. I will miss her greatly, her voice of cheer when she walked in my door and when we discussed our favorite pastime of doing jigsaw puzzles. May God comfort you at this time Bob with the knowing you will be together again shortly. May God comfort you at this time as we share in your grief. Ruth young
