Marilyn was my caregiver in the first place! But her kindness an her natural born love made us the best of friends! Always was here to help you or listen to you, and always a smile on her face! A true Angel sent by God to keep me strong! I loved her very much! RIP DEAR LADY!!

Marilyn came into our lives about 3 years ago. She was assigned to my mother as her care giver through TLC. It did not take long for us to realize that she was Heaven-sent. Marilyn got my mother back to crocheting and taught us some games we could play with her now that she is blind. Marilyn came to Thanksgiving and Christmas here a  couple of times and we all thought of her as family. To say that Marilyn brought happiness back into this home would be an understatement. She was a gift from God and we will always be indebted to her for her care, love, and attention to my mother but as I said she was family. We will miss Marilyn very much, and are deeply saddened that her greatest loves, her grandchildren, will now have to grow up without her. She loved those babies more than anything and they knew it, we knew, everybody knew it! They were her life. God Bless you Marilyn, and we will see you again one day.
