I am very sorry to hear of Marilyn's passing. I have fond memories of her from Hillside Jr. High School and Kalamazoo Central. What a wonderful, caring and interesting person she was. She will be greatly missed. I am sorry for the family's loss.

I loved working with Marilyn. Her kindness was inspiring. Her faith and love for Jesus flowed from her without even speaking a word. I am blessed to have worked beside her.

The world lost a great woman and nurse. We spent many hours working on various things for the current outpatient center. We were all blessed to know her.

I worked with this wonderful nurse and woman in the critical care units at Borgess. I can still remember the laughter and love she shared with patients, their families and her coworkers. She was professional, wonderfully knowledgable, willing to say she was sorry if the need presented itself, and a joy to work beside. She lived her life well and represented her faith and beliefs in all she did. Great my be her reward. Prayers for her family.
