Marilyn in my mind was a true descrition of a real lady. I worked with Marilyn at Mervyns and she was alway patient and helpful with new co-workers. I will miss her laugh and cheerful manner. I am honored to have known her.

My deepest condolences to all the Lee family. I am very sadden to hear she left us. I had the privlege to work with Marilyn at MERVYNS for 5 years, and I have wonderfull memories of her and I know she will be deeply missed. To make this short she was a wonderful,smart, funny and hardworking woman but most of all a generous person. When she found out we received our adopted baby overnite and that we werent prepared she planned a beautiful baby shower for me within a week at her home. I will always remember her thoughtfulness and kindness. But we know this was the kind of person she was. MAY GOD BLESS HER ALWAYS AND KEEP HER IN THE PALM OF HIS HAND.

I extend my deepest sympathies with the loss of your wife and mother. I always remember Marilyn and Ken's unwavering support of Wayne when he was a student and athlete at Glendale High School. I am sure that she provided that same love and guidance with each of her grandchildren. She will be greatly missed, by all. God Bless all of you and the extended family during this most difficult time.
