Kevin, Marsha, Leslie, Kim - I have wonderful memories of your mom - both at Trinity Church and at band events at RHS. She was a delightful person - always ready to share her smile and her bubbling personality. Keeping you in our thoughts.

I loved singing in the choir with Marilyn while at Trinity together. She got me into gigs that I would not have if not for her. Her enthusiasm and sense of humor were so infectious. Have missed her since the day they left trinity.
