Not sure what to say?

Condolences to her family. Marilyn & I worked together on the Quarter Century banquets. Enjoyed working with her. Fashionable lady. God bless. I’m

Mrs. Bertz hired me to work in Ryerson's Correspondence Department in 1983 at the age of 18. She was the epitome of professionalism and class. She became a mentor and helped develop me in the beginning stages of my career in business, for which I remain grateful. Rest in peace, Mrs. B. Fondly, "Ducky."

Looking back to 1966 when we met ... she, a Secretary in the Plastics Div. and, me, a part-time typist. Devoted to her husband, family and Ryerson ... a stellar person in so many ways. Warm, caring, beautiful smile, had a "spark" ... always a lady. Many called her Mrs. B ... she loved accentuating that title donning "bee" jewelry. She touched the lives of so many ... and enriched them along the way.

Marilyn was a spitfire !! Loved talking with her in person and on the phone. I’ve only known her for about 15 years but will never forget. Rip you classy lady!! You will be missed!!

Hey Mar, hold onto God's hand while he takes you to Dan's mansion. Say hi to Dan for me & gather up our Ryerson guys & girls for a real retirement party
See you later, Wish

Marilyn was my very first boss in my steel industry career which started in the typing pool. Marilyn was a perfectionist with a soft heart. I will always remember how she baked us a cake on our birthday and made us feel like family. I think of her and smile. May God Bless!

Marilyn was a wonderful person and truly loved by all of her neighbors at 1905. She was an angel on earth and now she is an angel in heaven. Rest well Marilyn

What a wonderful lady. Worked with her at Ryerson&on the Quarter century banquets. She was always on top of things. So sorry to hear of her passing.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
