Marilyn was my mother Betty Erickson's best friend from high school until the day she died in 2005. I have many fond memories of visiting her and Jim and their kids, Peggy and Mike, while I was growing up in Mansfield. After moving to Florida, Mom still kept in touch with "Fanch," and even after Mom died, "Fanch" and my father kept in touch. I'm glad that my husband and I were able to visit her and Jim at their home on one of our last trips to Mansfield. She was a kind woman and a fierce friend. I'm sorry to learn of her passing, but am sure she and Mom are now "catching up" in Heaven. Kindest regards and blessings to Mike and Peggy.
