    I remember Marilyn as a wonderful volunteer at Ladies of Charity for so many years. She was the epitome of hard work and dedication to the cause that so many of us love. Our hearts go out to her wonderful family. May her life of hard work and dedication to family continue to inspire us all.

    My condolences to Tom and Steve and the entire family. One of my favorite thoughts of Marylyn was Howard’s description of “3M Cookies” – Marylyn Mock Made em! God’s peace to all of you.

    Sorry to hear of your mom’s passing. The last time I saw Marilyn she was sitting in front of a quilt at a St. Dominic’s fish fry. That was some time ago. She was a good friend to my mother over the years. Marilyn and my mom, Evelyn Lawrence, took classes together when they decided to become catholic. My mom always remembered that, and all the good times she and my dad had with Howard and Marilyn. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family.

    My thoughts and prayers to the family. I was lucky to meet Marylyn through the quilters at St. Francis. We became friends and eventually I began to drive her home. We shared biweekly phone calls and oh so many topics. She will be missed.
