Mariann Munro Obituary
Mariann M. Munro
Aug. 10, 1957 - Mar. 25, 2023
MICHIGAN CITY, IN - Mariann M. Munro, 65, of Michigan City passed away peacefully at home on Saturday, March 25, 2023. She was born August 10, 1957 in Gary, IN to Homer and Marion (Engle) Gilmore and graduated from Calumet High School.
Mariann made her career as a bookkeeper with Lake Area United Way for many years. As a meticulous housekeeper, everything had its place in her home and her perfectionism carried over to all aspects of her life in a beneficial way. Her husband Art would occasionally run afoul of her carefully laid plans which seemed to only endear the two of them more to one another.
On May 27, 1978 she married Arthur Munro who survives along with their daughters; Audrey Munro (fiance-Carson) of Texas and Paula Munro of Fort Wayne, IN, and brothers; Ray, Glen and Howard Gilmore. She was preceded in death by her parents and one sister, Linda.
Following cremation at Angelcrest Crematory a private ceremony will be held for placement of her urn at St. Andrew's Columbarium in Valparaiso.

We were drawn to each other like magnets when we were only 6. We became very close friends . We did everything together for a lot of years. Life happens and we didn't get together very often anymore but I will miss her so much. Rest peacefully my dearest friend. One of the sweetest people I've ever known.
