Condolences
Lovely tribute to Marilyn.. she was so strong and independent and called a spade a spade! Hardest working person I ever met. I worked for a while with Marilyn at the Woodsman and she could run circles around me serving people. Played some cards with her over a pot of tea, curled a bit with her too. Lots of fun.
Terry, Dan, Mike and Doug… my condolences

My sincere sympathy to Marilyn’s son’s , her sister Arline and her extended family. Marilyn was a special cousin. She was always so busy and interested in many things Her Mom always said if there was a berry to be found Marilyn would find it. Her amazing work ethic whether building homes with Lloyd, gardening or visiting country fairs attested to her strong work ethic and creativity.May you Rest In Peace Marilyn.
