Not sure what to say?

So sorry Brenda, Carla and Julie for the loss of your dear mother. She was certainly a pillar in the Ellenton neighborhood and we´ve missed her greatly as our back yard neighbor. Our deepest sympathies to her whole family.

I was sad to hear of your mother's passing. I remember her as a lovely and kind lady. She raised three beautiful daughters.

I always thought Marlys was a beautiful and talented lady. She always made Doreen, myself, and any other of Brenda's friends feel welcome. She was soft spoken and friendly. She raised three daughters just like her.

Look-up the definition of "lady" in the dictionary and you'll find a picture of Marlys. She was a wonderful neighbor and friend who indeed loved her girls and grandchildren more than anything. She impacted more lives than she ever knew with her kind and quiet ways. She was beautiful, but I don't think she ever realized just how beautiful she really was. My deepest sympathy to her loving family, she was one in a million...

Enjoyed having her as a neighbor for many years
