Marilyn Guarneri (Myers), 81, of Toms River; loving wife, mother, grandmother, aunt, and friend to so many, passed away Thursday morning, July 3rd, 2025 with her daughters Susan and Vicki by her side. She will be deeply missed by family and friends. Marilyn and her husband Vito raised four daughters, Dawn, Susan, Sally, and Vicki in Toms River. She was born in Bloomfield, NJ on January, 17th 1944 where she attended Bloomfield High School.

Upon moving to Toms River and beginning their family, Marilyn was always active in her daughters’ activities and events. A consumed member of the Silver Bay Elementary PTO, Marilyn was supportive in every way for her daughters. She loved Atlantic City, traveling to Florida, watching soap operas, the Hallmark channel, PGA Golf, and of course the NY Yankees. Her greatest joy was spending time with her daughters and adoring grandchildren. She could be found at every home game for the Toms River North girls basketball team over the course of a 25 year period and supported each and every one of the girls and coaches. Marilyn’s love of people, conversation, positivity, her ever present smile and laugh that brought life to every room in which she found herself, will be terribly missed.
