			Marilyn, I can't see you but I KNOW you are with me. Your spirit, your love of others continues. You exuded joy and wanted everyone you met to feel good, to feel good about themselves. Your physical presence is greatly missed, yet you are very present. You were always a bright shining light. That beautiful bright shining light is still filling me up. THANK YOU, my friend. I love you
 
			Marilyn was and will always be one of my favorite people. I’ve never met anyone who has a quick wit and sense of humor to match hers. Even though her body systems failed her one at a time, her sense of humor NEVER failed. 
I will miss her forever and will always be grateful our Lord brought her into my life. I love you, my friend.
 
			Dearest Marilyn, I will miss your bright light and enduring friendship...52 years and still counting because, you will never leave my heart. I will miss you forever, Laurie
 
			Thank you for your gifts, Marilyn-your wit, your delicious sense of humor, your joy & openhearted embrace of life, your radiant smile, your empathy, your wisdom, your vulnerability & generosity, your intelligence & your counsel, your love of red licorice & outrageous outfits, but most of all, thank you for your friendship. Go with God
 
			My dear friend, I had to post a couple more pics I dug up if you being the life of the party... the dancing cat at your Christmas party, toasting peeps with me at Easter, playing “mesquite” guitar at the wood pile in Tubac, and you in your glory at Jenny and Stefans Halloween party- I’m glad you’re out of pain, but I miss you so much! I love you
 
			It was my great pleasure to get to know your sister. What a wonderful, spirited, lovely person. I'm grateful to Judie for introducing us, we had some good times together. See will forever be missed.
