I knew Marilyn, or as I referred to her as "Mrs Schwartz", for many many years. She was one of the kindest people I have ever met. Her and her husband were always so welcoming when I would come over and always made me feel at home. She was a wonderful person and I pray that she continues to rest in peace. I also wish her daughters and families continues wonderful memories of their lovely mother!!

I am sure a women as kind and giving as Marilyn is missed as much today as she was when she left this earth. She was always so kind and welcoming to me whenever I would visit her home. I recall her always having a great suntan and riding her bike on those warm evenings. She is missed. Bless her daughters and all the family she left behind.

Beverly, Sheryl and Karen,
I wanted to express my sincere sympathy for the loss of your mother a few years ago. I just came across the notice and wanted to reach out. I remember your mom was always so kind to me. I also remember how she loved to ride her bike. She used to pass my old Hoffman Estates house all the time in the summer. I remember she was always so tan. She was a great mom and a great person she raised three great daughters.
Bless you and your families. I hope you are all doing well!!
