We will miss Marilyn very much. As I've lived in her apartment building for 10+ years, she had the sweetest heart & always helped our family as well as being a good friend of ours. God bless your family during this difficult time.

To Marilyn's Family, Marilyn trained me for the volunteer position at TAM and I grew very fond of her. She had an open mind, a love of people and great wisdom and wit. She always talked so lovingly about her children and grandchildren. With Sympathy,
