Marilyn Annette Rayhorn

Marilyn Annette Rayhorn, born on January 30, 1944, in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, passed away peacefully on May 28, 2025, in Virginia Beach, Virginia, at the age of 81.
Marilyn was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 53 years, Keith Wilson Rayhorn, as well as her parents, Martha Isabell Hurr and Clarence Frederick Hurr. She is survived by a son & daughter, brother, sisters-in-law, lifelong friends, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Throughout her life, Marilyn touched the lives of those around her with her kindness and gentle spirit. From her roots growing up on a farm in her hometown of Jersey Shore, Pennsylvania, to her lifetime home in Portsmouth, Virginia, she touched many lives. Along the way, she has worn many hats: housewife, mother & grandmother being the most important. Her many other joys in life included bowling, Saturday night card games, and attending a multitude of youth soccer, baseball, basketball & football games. Probably her very favorite was sitting out on the back deck either drinking coffee while reading a good book or with a glass of wine enjoying time with special friends & family.
Her presence will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her. We will cherish her memory.
