Marilyn A. Bagadinski Rinker

It's 15 years and I still miss you. I can hear your laugh and it stops my breath. You made such a difference in my life. Love you.

Our Aunt Myrna! It's still hard to believe. I find myself more often than not, speaking of her as if she were still alive....and she is in all of our hearts. She was a kindhearted, non-judgemental, sweet and intelligent woman who had a heart of gold. I will always regret not having had more time with her, but will always appreciate the times that we shared.
I can still, honest to God, hear her say "Audrey, you have such beautiful children"! (and she said it to me, even though she...

To all of Marilyn's family- Your Mom/sister will be missed by so many. I worked with Marilyn at the hospital in Burlington for many years and she was always the "go -to" person when someone needed help. I often drove her home after work when you lived in Shelburne and one of "her" boys had her car...we laughed all the way home about the antics of my little kids and her big kids. She was a truly compassionate person, who lived her life with truth and love. May your many wonderful memories...

You will truly be missed Marilyn. Your humor and passion for nursing will be remembered for years to come. Thank you for all you have given me. May God keep you.

We shared our lives with each other during our many conversations. Often the topic was our children and grandchildren and that is how I got to know each one of you. Your mother burst with pride over your...

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Marilyn's family. Our daughter, Susan, was a nursing graduate of the class of 2003 from Norwich University.
Marilyn was an inspiration to Susan and to her fellow students at Norwich. She instilled in her students the qualities of caring and listening to your patients.
She will be missed.
