Marilyn Ann Person was born September 11, 1932 to Ben and Anna (Larson) Person in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Although she grew up on a forty-acre farm in Elm Park near Stanchfield, Minnesota, Marilyn always thought of herself as a city girl.

In 1953, Marilyn married Vernal From of Cambridge, Minnesota. They lived in North Minneapolis and Richfield before moving to Bloomington where they raised their three daughters.
Vernal worked for Northwest Airlines, a job that opened a world of travel that the whole family eagerly embraced. Marilyn's travels included six continents, the highlights being an African Safari and a trip to India to see the Taj Mahal. Vern & Marilyn also enjoyed cruising, going on a total of forty-two cruises.
Marilyn is survived by daughters Judy (Brian) Scholin of Pine City, Kari (Kim) Piehl/Sannes of Seattle, Washington, Debra (Jim) Hanson of Richland, Washington; 9 grandchildren; 11 great-grandchildren; many other relatives and friends.
