Normally I'm not the nostalgic type, but the last few days have been filled with wonderful, forgotten memories going all the way back to when we were all kids at Aunt Ruby and Uncle Bill's farm. My deepest sympathies go out to Jeff, Jody, Jan, Dave, and their families. Wish I could be there with you ( l will be, in spirit) but I'm a Florida Gator now.
Marlyn's little Cuz, Joe C

My thoughts and prayers go out to the family. Marlyn was a wonderful woman, she always had a smile on her face. I enjoyed many laughs with her at the Winchester Golf Course if it be at the bar or playing cribbage. She will be missed, but know that she is in god's kingdom

Many fond memories of knowing Marlyn for 42 years. She was a great teacher colleague and friend....many laughs and tears. Prayers for her family. She'll probably continue "subbing" and golfing in heaven and hearing more of Bill's funny jokes. And of course a party or two. She was Franklin's sub "anchor and rock" from the retiree bunch too:) Will miss her dearly but lives on in my thoughts.
