Marilyn was my friend and classmate since kindergarten. Going to Corydon will never be quite the same without seeing Marilyn. And, for sure, Facebook has changed forever without her GO CHIEFS (and other sports related cheering)

Sad to read of Marilyn's passing. Ronnie was my cousin (his mother was a Carter). My favorite memory of Marilyn was that she drove a tractor working the fields when women just didn't do that. And so .... I admired her.

Marlyn was a beautiful person and will be greatly missed, but our loss is heaven's gain. She is now walking in God's glory.
I never met this wonderful lady but loved her nonetheless . I'll miss her so very much š. Go Chiefs will always be my memories of my dear friend.
Sending my special thoughts to your family.
Numbers 6:24-26

Marilyn and I were team mates on the Corydon Basketball team in high school. She was fast, quick on her feet and a good shot. She was also known for her sleek pony tail. I will greatly miss seeing her 'Go, Chiefs!' posts on Facebook.
Marilyn and Ron were regular customers at our family restaurant through the years. Always a joy to visit with them.
As the years went by and we no longer had the family restaurant, Marilyn would tell me how she missed the tenderloins they would have there. A couple of years ago I took her a tenderloin from the Allerton play and she was so excited to have one like years ago! I made sure to take her one the following year.
The Allerton Legion was another place I got to enjoy her and Ron.
So thankful our paths crossed through the years.
You will be missed!
