She was a proud member of the Beta Sigma Phi sorority. Marilyn loved being outside, either you could find her sitting on her porch, tending to her flowers or cooking in her outside kitchen. She was such a fun loving person and always enjoyed music and dancing. Most of all, she loved spending time with her family. Gram would do anything for those grandbabies of hers. Her kind heart and warm smile will be missed by all of those who knew and loved her.
