Marilyn's family -- You have my deepest sympathy. Marilyn was such a great person.
We worked together at Nalco and what a great
time I always had with her. She made you feel at ease and a family member. May all your wonderful memories of Marilyn get you through this time.

RIP Aunt Mar. You will be missed not only by family and friends, but all whose lives you have touched. Thank you for the memories of many wonderful times we shared. Knowing you are with your Heavenly Father and with all those who have gone before will help heal the sorrows in the hearts of us left on earth. Until we meet again

My heartfelt sympathies go out to Marilynn's family and friends. Following my retirement from NALCO and working with Marilynn in Environmental, I moved to Florida. Marilynn has always been my go-to person for everything NALCO. I always looked forward to Marilynn's colorful and creative Christmas card. My collection is very much cherished and always part of my Christmas display. As the birds fly South . . . another soul flies to heaven.

There is not just one thing that I will miss most about Marilynn.
She is irreplaceable as a cousin, friend, caring and sensitive person.
Her talents were many, but what stands out is her artistic expressions in her greeting cards, her ability to be an outstanding hostess, encourager when needed and overall fun to be around.
I miss her and she lives on in my mind and heart.
