We are truly saddened to hear of Marilyn’s passing. She was a gracious and inviting woman whose presence lit up a room. I have very many fond memories of her from when I was a small child.

You are all in our prayers. I spent many hours pulling her chain and her mine. She and my son, Jarrod, had a special contact. They seemed to be on the same wave length. She will be missed. God Bless,
Bill and Ann Christophel

As long time neighbors and acquaintances of Marilyn, we remember her as a ready, willing and most able organizer and doer of most anything needed to be done, whether in support of association meetings, garage sales or getting out our community newsletter…always helpful and proficient. She enjoyed her regular walks around the lake listening to her music and meeting with friends and neighbors at our community table. Marilyn often recalled her fond memories with Gordon, who she now joins in eternal peace. May the Lord’s peace be with them and with you, Laurie and yours.
