Jan. 14, 1936 - Sept. 15, 2015

Marilyn left us on Tuesday, Sept. 15, to join her Savior and family members on the other side. For those of us who are still here, it feels way too soon. Marilyn made the most out of every day and up until July she was active and busy doing the things she loved. Her artistic talents never ceased to flood us with blessings and many lives were transformed by her passion for reading and desire to teach others. The many comments that have already come our way make reference to her selfless giving to others.

Her surviving family members are Linda Larkins (daughter), Preston Larkins (grandson), Steven (son) and Deborah Berry, Doris Berry and Sharon Underwood (sisters), and Buck (brother) and Betty Morris. She also leaves several precious nieces and nephews.

While each of us struggle, learning to live life without her, and strive to be the type of person she was, we will also celebrate her long-awaited reunion with those she loved on the other side: Don (husband), Dave (son) and Justin (grandson).

€œYou will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you and all the trees of the field will clap their hands. € Isaiah 55:12 (Marilyn €™s favorite passage)
