I´m so very sorry that Marilyn has left this world. She was such a quiet, gentle soul. I still see her smile and hear her laugh in my memory.

I worked with Marilyn at AOS from 2000 until she retired and really enjoyed working with her. My condolences to her family and may her memory be a blessing.
