    I remember Auntie Marilyn when visiting our house in Wakefield! She was such a good Aunt and Mother! She had so much patience with her children when they were young and very active ! Lol! 😊💖 I also remember when we were young visiting their house ! My Aunt had cages of colorful birds and spent a lot of time caring for a lot of them! I can no longer drive but I think of all of you and send Love! 💖

    I could never express how kind and wonderful Marilyn was to me. She always had a smile for me whenever I saw her. When I think of her I see her sparkling eyes with her beautiful smile. I will truly miss her at our family gatherings. Love to all, Kathleen Rayworth

    Marilyn was a wonderful sister to my Mom, Carol, as they went through life's ups and downs together, They were always there for each other in their times of need and shared their strength between our families. I will be forever grateful to have had Marilyn as my wonderful, loving Godmother. I love you, Marilyn and will miss you very much. Thank you for everything!

    Mom you were the light of my life, my best friend, my role model, my inspiration and so much more. You taught me that even on the darkest of days that soon there would be sunshine and to appreciate all the little things in life and to keep smiling and have hope. Your incredible caring and love for all of us makes me smile and grateful that we had you for all of the time that we did. We will all miss your positive energy and love..but I know you will be by my side supporting me, guiding me and helping me through the darkest of days forever in my soul. Sleep peacefully among the angels that you are now. I love you mom ❤️
