Marilyn Craven Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers from Jul. 23 to Jul. 25, 2017.
Marilyn was a kind and gentle person who will be greatly missed by her family and friends. She is survived by her husband of 63 years Bob, as well as sister Sandra (Gary), sons Scott (Janie), Dean (Candy) and Kirk. Marilyn also leaves behind her nine cherished grandchildren.

Many thanks to the staff of RJH for their compassionate care. A family celebration of life will be held at a later date.

Our families were neighbours, only a bit apart down the street. She was always very welcoming and kind to me. I learned how to let muffins cool by watching her (lifting them up and onto their sides while still in the pan) :) She was a little bit of a thing, petite, and loved to go golfing with her husband. I have good memories of the Cravens.

So Sorry to hear of the loss of a special 'Mom' in Cordova Bay. We have lots of great Marilyn memories.
Take care,

My sympathies to the Craven family on the loss of a bright spark, my first memories are of Marilyn bringing three young boys to the beach in front of our home on Cordova Bay beach,,Always had a smile and a warm welcome. A beautiful lady.
