My friend Marilyn rest in peace...I loved the time I was able to be with Marilyn all those years bowling! So many fun times... laughing until our cheeks hurt! Marilyn introduced me to the Rueben Sandwich that I still love today and associate the two fondly. Marilyn will be missed by many. My condolences and love to family & friends.

I am deeply saddened of Marilyn's passing. I have known her since grade school. Living in Neenah we met for lunch often with another Merrill friend Peggy. She was a good and caring friend. She will be missed.
My thoughts and prayers are with her family, that she deeply cared for and loved. Bonnie
