MARILYN EWER Obituary

EWER, Marilyn K. 1949 to 2024 Age 74, of North Reading, Massachusetts, passed away peacefully, on June 9, 2024, in her home. Marilyn was born in New York City, in 1949 to Kurt and Rita Ewer, and grew up in Westbury, New York. She attended Regis College, graduating in 1971. Marilyn began her career working for Dealerscope Magazine and then, a number of other publications before forming her own copywriting company, MKE Enterprises, in 1982. During her career, Marilyn wrote copy for a number of national catalogues and magazines. Marilyn was generous with her time, volunteering for over 25 years as a member of the Board of Directors of NEDMA Foundation, Inc., (New England Direct Marketing Association) and serving for more than ten years as its president. In her free time, Marilyn studied and collected Native American jewelry and also became an accomplished potter. She combined her love of pottery with her passion to help others by serving for five years as Executive Director of the New England Sculptors Association. Marilyn will be greatly missed by her brother, Raymond Ewer (Jean Croll Ewer) of Norfolk, Massachusetts; and her nephews, Adam Ewer of New York City, Craig Ewer (Steven Aldridge) of Brooklyn and Brett Ewer (Phoebe Long) of Alexandria, VA. A Celebration of Marilyn's Life is being planned. Donations in her memory may be made to the New England Sculptors Association, at https://nesculptors.org/donate/
