Doug, Mike and Kids, my heart aches with yours at the loss of Mom. I will always see her smile and hear her laughter. She now is on the bigger journey.
Mom like you told Audrey...."Keep rowing". I will miss you the rest of my life Mom. With much love. C

I wish to express my sorry for Marilyn leaving us so suddenly. I thank her for her all the help that she gave to my family. I loved her energy and her caring. She was filled with spunk and pizzazz and I was blessed to have met. The only comfort we have is that her problems have left her and she is not at peace,

I only knew Marilyn on a business basis but always enjoyed chatting with her. My sympathy to those who will feel her loss most deeply; family and friends.

Marilyn was an amazing woman. She helped my family during a very difficult time and was a very smart and very kind lady. My heart breaks for her family during this sad time. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Doug,Mike & family: I am so saddened by the passing of Marilyn. She was a good friend to me and I learned so much from her working with her all of the years together. She was always so kind and helpful to my parents also. I will never forget her. If you need anything or if I can help in anyway, please let me know. Wendy

Marilyn and I graduated from South Haven High School together. We
worked together, bowled together and had some rip-roaring times together.
She was a very intelligent, caring person. Marilyn was the fastest typist
in the Class of '55 and we will all miss her terribly.

I wish to extend my sincerest condolences to all of Marilyn's family and friends. Marilyn was a beloved associate and loyal friend of my Father, William J. Verdonk, and his wife, Dorothy Verdonk for nearly 50 years. My Dad and Mom always spoke of Marilyn with the highest regard, respect, and love. I have nothing but fond and positive memories of Marilyn in my association with her throughout the years. I am sure that her selfless dedication to her family and friends has earned Marilyn her eternal reward. May God love her and keep her.

Dear Laraway family: I met Marilyn many years ago when she was employed at the law office of Meyer Warshawsky. She and I were employed at law offices most of our lives and were very close friends.
She loved all of you so very much and spoke of you often. She was a proud mother, mother-in-law, and grandmother. I'm sure that all who knew Marilyn will miss her greatly.

Sorry for your loss. Marilyn and the boys were our first neighbors when we moved to Southwestern Michigan to start our careers. She was a very welcoming and helpful person to us.

Mike and Doug, May God keep you both in his hands during this difficult time. When Marilyn and I first met I had no idea of how special she would become to me. With all the time I have spent with Marilyn and the two of you in our personal and work life Marilyn had become my adoptive mother. My heart breaks constantly for your loss, but I am comforted in the knowledge that she is no longer in pain. I will miss her for a very long time.
