Mrs. Morcom was a close friend and fellow first grade teacher at State Road School with my grandmother, Irene Hunt. She was and always will be held in the highest regard in our family and will be in our thoughts and prayers.

Marilyn was one of the kindest, gentle people I know. I taught across the hall from her at State Road. Both of my boys were students of hers. Love and prayers of comfort to her family.
