Marilyn was a nurturing, loving sister. She was protective, confident and strong willed. I still treasure a memory that I have as a 5 year old of her reading a book to me sitting on her bed. She did that often. I am saddened by her passing but grateful that it was without suffering. She is in Gods company now.

Marilyn will be missed greatly. Working at the University of Kentucky would have been so boring without her. She was such a good friend to me as I tried to be to her. My thoughts and prayers are with you and ask that God give you comfort as only He can give.
