Marilynn GLUCK Obituary
Marilynn was born in Los Angeles. After schooling locally, she attended the University of California at Berkley and graduated, from UCLA, with a teaching credential. She educated elementary school children until she met and married Howard Gluck in 1952. This was a love affair that lived until Howard's passing in 2015 (the only acrimony, ever, concerned Marilynn's consumption of chocolate). Marilynn embraced that love ever after. As her 3 children grew, she volunteered her time and knowledge for various organizations. She served, for decades, at The Los Angeles County Museum of Art and was highly appreciated for her outstanding administrative contributions, her sweet personality and the proud manner in which she represented the Museum.
Marilynn was the matriarch of her extended family. She took loving care of all of us, including friends and neighbors, in many ways. She hosted almost every holiday and life celebration event at the long-standing Brentwood home, always with her warm ways and great cooking – her chicken soup has been the standard by which all others are judged.
Marilynn was predeceased by her husband Howard Gluck, her brother Paul Richards, her grandson, Michael Gluck and her daughter in law Alva Gluck. She is survived by her children Susan Cunningham (Tim), Tom Gluck (Julie) and Dan Gluck; her grandchildren Sara Cunningham (Cesar Iglesias), Kelly Lonsberry, Brian Gluck (Paulina), Richard Gluck, Cameron Gluck and Kasey Gluck and her greatgrandchildren Scarlett, Maddison, Miles, Dante, Artemis, Sophia, Mason and Anthony.
Mom/Grandma/GG will forever be in our hearts. We shall honor her memory, always.
Memorial Services will be held on Thursday, April 25, 2025, 10:00 am at Hillside Memorial Park
