I’m so sorry to read of aunt Marilynn’s passing. It truly grieves my heart that my aunt and uncles from my moms side of my family will pass away one by one without my knowledge. Rest in peace aunt Marilynn
I was looking for Marilyn on facebook and the internet and found this page. I am so very sorry that she has passed. She and I traveled together in the carnival and later I spent time with her and her lovely family taking pictures for a photographic school project. They were generous with their time and patience and I was humbled that they allowed me to become like family, if only for a brief period.
My special condolences go out to her daughter Patty who was a wonderful smart curious brave 13 year old girl who I learned so much from on a long walk into town, through the woods alongside the creek so many years ago. She and her cousin took me on the hike of a lifetime and I was just recounting the story to my son this week.
I will never forget Marilyn or her family and want to extend my heartfelt condolences for their great loss.
Rest in peace Marilyn, you were a true friend.
