I'm so sorry to hear of Marilyn's passing. I knew her from the red rabbit store and also from waiting on her and her husband at Falatico's restaurant. She was always so sweet and nice. As her husband is also. I'm sure she will be missed by many.

So Sad to hear of Marilyns passing. She was the sweetest person. I got to know her shopping at her store Red Rabbit boutique. The store had the cutest clothes and Marilyn always looked cute wearing them. Her store also became a place to voice any Hemet school issues and concerns . She will be missed.
