Marilyn was the loving mother to Michael "Mickey" (Joan Castro) Simon, and Kathy (Dale) LaBorde; proud grandmother to Brittny Simon, Brooklyn (Dustin) Simon, Jason LaBorde and Shawn (Valerie) LaBorde; great-grandmother to McKalyn, Maxwell, Adelie, Zyah, Kyren and Chance; special aunt to Donna Vandenbemden, Linda Meyers, Mary Logan and Karen Kuchvaleck; and sister-in-law to Dorothy White.
She was a 30 plus year employee at Solans Greenhouse in Hammond, IN and developed lasting friendships with the family, employees, and customers there. She served as a member of Pine Street Presbyterian Church until it's closing. A patient listener, she offered a loving concern and safe haven to many, especially those experiencing that troubling adolescent sojourn. Marilyn's positive attitude and bright disposition made the world just a little nicer, and she will be missed.
