To the best sister from another mother ever. Love to all the Emerson’s on their loss. She will be missed but forever loved!
So sorry for your loss of Marilyn. She will be missed. May Marilyn rest in God’s eternal home! May Jesus wrap His arms around you with Peace & Comfort!
So sorry for your loss, thoughts & prayers.
we are so sorry for your loss. Every time we had the pleasure to see her she always brought a smile to ourselves and everybody else around her.
Having the pleasure of knowing her 60 years still wasn’t quite enough. So many fond memories as well as some sad, but none as heartbreaking for her as losing Dan.
Every stage of our lives recalled brings a smile to my face. Her kindness and sweetness lives on in my heart. All my love and deepest sympathies to you her beloved family. Till we meet again Mern, RIP. 😘
Even though we were not friends at Epiphany, I got to know you at Farmers Home & we finally became friends! You & Dan made it through the wars of marriage! Now you both will be in heaven!
I know even with the problems you had you will be together in Heaven! God forgives all, I hope!
Love, Loretta
My Condolences to all.
I befriended Marilyn as a Southview employee. I became especially close to her after Dan passed away. Marilyn was witty, warm and always impeccably groomed, especially her lovely nails. Her home at Southview was welcoming and beautiful. I will miss you dearest Marilyn. RIP with your beloved husband.
My condolences to all Marilyn’s family. We had some great times taking our kids to ball games and on other adventures. We met at work and still managed to go out to lunch occasionally after retirement, although she was not well enough to join our group the last time we met. She was a sweet, kind, loving person. Love to you all. I regret to say that I have other commitments on Sunday and Monday, but I will be with you in spirit.
Rest in peace my dear friend. My condolences to your family.
My deepest sympathy for your loss.
Marilyn was a Wonderful person, she had a heart of gold, she had a sincere, caring and loving way of making you feel special. Marilyn will be remembered and cherished forever in my heart.
Wishing you peace and comfort.
