Born on July 18, 1945, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Marilyn was the daughter of Ada and Jesse Jaye Quinn. She faced challenges in early adulthood due to a disability, but with the unwavering support of her parents and her deep faith, she persevered.
Marilyn was a graduate of St. Anthony Catholic School and Southeastern Louisiana University, where she earned a degree in education. She dedicated her career to teaching Home Economics at Archbishop Chappelle High School in Metairie, Louisiana. However, her greatest joy was being a mother to her son and a devoted homemaker.
She is survived by her son, Edwin Oliver Price; her grandchildren, Marilyn and David Price; her brother and sister-in-law, Dale and Jan Quinn, who were her primary caregivers for many years; and several nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents; her brother, Richard Jaye "Dickie" Quinn; her sister-in-law, Barbara Achord Quinn; and her nephew, Jaye Quinn.
A visitation will be held at Most Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church on February 10, 2025, at 10:00 a.m., followed by a burial Mass at 11:00 a.m. Interment will take place at Resthaven Gardens of Memory in Baton Rouge.
Marilyn's strength, faith, and love for her family will be remembered by all who knew her.
