We went to school together. She was always very quiet and peaceful. Very kind.

Marilu, you are never far from my thoughts. Our talks, your words of comfort when I needed them, are forever precious to me.

I want to add this to my message. My self and 2 other school mates of Marilus just learned of her passing this Monday. This is why my message is being sent so late. My apologies.

Querida Marilu, siento tu marcha muchísimo. Pensar que no volveré a verte me duele. Fue para mi una sorpresa conocerte, me entendí rápidamente contigo, me sorprendió tu gran acogida y amabilidad , pero lo que guardaré dentro de mi es tu gran caracter alegre y positivo de la vida. Te vi pocos mese antes de partir y tu entereza me conmovió, siempre a punto para pasar un rato bueno con los que te rodeaban, aunque no te encontrabas bien.
Agradezco con toda mi alma todo lo que nos ofreciste,...
