My sincerest sympathy to all the family members;thoses I've had the pleasure of spending time with and those I havent met.
I met Marylue a short 13 months ago when I moved to hurricane from Florida and we hit it off immediately. We had a lot of fun Together in that short time whether it was sitting around her table giving each other pedicures; , laughing till tears streamed down our face because of some comment one of us made,or going on a road trip or go to Las Vegas to do things she had to do. So many thing we did in such a short time . We would sit for hours talking about our families. A day wouldn't go by that she didn't mentioned her children and grandchildren. She fretted about them, worried about them individually and loved them unconditionally. And when I met them it was easy to love them too. She came to many of my family get togethers, and they loved her too. She was easy to love.
She will surely be missed. We all cried when she left us ,but I know there was great rejoycing when she went home and her loved ones there welcomed her with open arms. In my minds eye I can see her smiling ,and still with a twinkle in her eye.
I love you Marylue. Your friend and Red hat sister, Lorlee Lindsay

So sad that Marylou will not be there when we come to visit. It was always a joy to visit her and her precious puppies. She was an amazing person. We love you, Marylou...Until we meet again.

I first met Marylue at Bunco and we soon became fast friends. She loved her family, her church, her God, and her friends. She always made the best dishes and we all looked forward to her fun laugh, and that twinkle in her eye, and sharing the evening with her.
Marylue took great pride in her home and in her family. It was evident when Bunco was at her home and she would give us a tour. Not to show us what she had, but the pride she had in her home and she would share pictures of her family and say how blessed she was.
I send my sincere sympathy and condolences to you her family. May God's choicest blessing be with you at this tender time in your lives. I love Alma 40:11-12, it reads:
11 Now, concerning the state of the soul between death and the resurrection—Behold, it has been made known unto me by an angel, that the spirits of all men, as soon as they are departed from this mortal body, yea, the spirits of all men, whether they be good or evil, are taken home to that God who gave them life.
12 And then shall it come to pass, that the spirits of those who are righteous are received into a state of happiness, which is called paradise, a state of rest, a state of peace, where they shall rest from all their troubles and from all care, and sorrow.
That scripture whispers peace to me that all is well with Marylue.
