Loving mother, great friend, heart of gold, kind, caring, nurturing, generous. Marilyn was all this and more. She loved her children and grandchildren, each and every one for their own merits and beyond, just because… Marilyn swallowed life’s disappointments, which are never few, and kept them down with her inevitable ray of sunshine, hoping to never let them show. How could we not miss her? Our hearts go out to her children and grand children; their sorrow surely must seem inconsolable. I believe she would say “but that’s life, and we must go on.” May the love of family and friends see you through; peace be with her and also with you. Our sincere gratitude to Tommy and Nena for uniting this unique lady with our family.
