Marilyn devoted her thoughts and energy to others. Not only had she cared for her aging parents but she also ensured her 3 aunts and mother in law were in good hands and surrounded by love as they each grew older. She thrived on the updates from family and friends and gave attention, love, and hugs to her 6 grandchildren as well as extended family, ensuring each would know they held a special place in her heart. Her upbeat manner, easy smile, and ever present kindness was a gift to all in her...

Marilyn was a lovely lady. She was so welcoming to me when I became part of this amazing family and she was so kind, so intelligent, and so interesting to talk to. I enjoyed our conversations at family events. I will always have such great memories. Condolences to Amy and Paul and family. A true gem is no longer with us. Love, Joanie
