We're so sorry to hear about Marillyn's passing. We lived next door to her fifteen years ago and she was a wonderful neighbor. She did some art framing for us and we were very fond of her. Many condolences to her family.

Marillyn And I became acquainted couple of years ago whe I rejoined the Bible study group. I found Marillyn to be a very charming, funny, and easy to talk to person, and on occasions I had the privilege of being her ride to our bible study gatherings.
She will be missed by not only me but also the rest of her study group family, and anyone who had the good fortune of meeting her.
I would like to express my deepest condolences to her surviving family.
