The Mass was a special tribute to a wonderful person from her adoring family. Mary Lou Bogni

As a classmate and friend of Marilyn for over 55 years, it is a real loss to me and all her CL friends. In 1989, it was Mort who replaced my husband, Dr. Joe Bogn's heart valve. When I called Marilyn with our plea, she said, "It is done" Mort and Marilyn gave us 20 years. My prayers are to her family who she adored. Mary Lou Bogni

I will miss Marilyn so much. She was a delightful person and a good friend, always upbeat and cheerful. We enjoyed birding together here at Harbour Ridge, and it was always good to see her on our trips. I'm glad I knew her and am so sorry that we all have lost her.

I remember well and with fondness not only your Mom (and Dad's) faithful presence at Mass but esp their warm, caring interest in people. They were certainly proud of the man and women their children grew to be. And with good reason. May she & your Dad be happy in the Kingdom.

Marilyn Buckley - A beautiful woman with a beautiful spirit. Gracious, loving, generous, and kind are only a few adjectives to describe her. She is at peace in her Saviour's arms now with her husband, Mort. We are all so blessed to have had her in our lives.

I am so sorry for your loss. Your mom was a real inspiration when it came to fitness and I think she imparted that to her kids. I've seen a few of you up at HRYCC fitness center through the years. Your mom had a wonderful spirit and I will miss seeing her smiling face. Susie Chase
