Marilia was an example to all us! She approached all challenges with grace! An amazing friend and nurse who always put others first. I will miss her beautiful smile, laugh, and spirit. Rest in peace and love.

I was so very saddened to hear of Marilia's passing. I loved her, as everyone who knew her loved her. She was a wonderful example of pure joy and love
placed here on earth by God to show everyone around her how to best care for each other! She was my colleague and friend at Wake Med. She always ready to lend a helping hand, or guidance, and she was well experienced with her vast medical knowledge . Heaven has certainly gained the most wonderful angel, I agree! My heart and prayers are with those who are grieving over this loss. God bless us all, and give us peace.........Amen

The world truly lost an angel. I had the pleasure of working with Marilia at WakeMed. She was an extraordinary nurse and an even more amazing person. When I think of her I see her smiling and hear her infectious giggle. Rest in peace my sweet friend.

A beautiful soul, full of love and faith, ascended to heaven, away from us, but closer to God, leaving loneliness and sadness.

A bright light in a dark world. Gone but never forgotten. Her laugh, smile, energy and compassion is given to only a few. God's angel called home. Until we meet again.
