Marilyn retired from Southwestern Bell after 32 years. She enjoyed 30 years of retirement which was spent traveling with her husband and gardening. Marilyn's greatest fulfillment in life was her family. They were the most important thing in the world to her. She was so proud of them and loved spending time with them. She was always so grateful that God blessed her with a long and healthy life and that she lived long enough to see and enjoy her five great grandchildren.
