Marilyn Joan Reichert, born November 4, 1944, passed away peacefully on January 3, 2025, surrounded by her loving family.

Marilyn was a devoted mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend who touched the lives of everyone she met with her warmth, kindness, and unwavering love. She dedicated much of her life to caring for others as a compassionate and skilled nurse. Her faith was a cornerstone of her life, and she was a proud and active member of her church community.

She is survived by her sons, Chris Reichert and Denny Reichert; daughter-in-law, Stacey Reichert; her cherished grandchildren, Brady, Sydnee, Hadlee, Caden, and Grayson Reichert; her brother, Rick Artzer, and sister-in-law, Susan Artzer; her niece, Shawna Artzer Davis, and nephews, Eric Artzer and Marc Artzer; her sister, Patricia Candelaria, and brother-in-law, Ernest Candelaria; and her niece, Andrea Candelaria, and nephews, Justin Candelaria and Jordan Candelaria. Marilyn’s legacy lives on in the hearts of her family, who were her greatest joy and proudest accomplishment.

A service to honor and celebrate Marilyn’s life will be held on January 24, 2025, at 11:00 AM at Nativity of Our Lord in Broomfield, Colorado. A private burial will follow later that afternoon.

Marilyn will be deeply missed, but her love and memories will forever remain with those who knew and loved her.
