Dear Steve and Heather, I just heard about Marilyn's passing from another cousin of ours. I can't tell you how very sorry I am. I last spoke with Marilyn when I called to let her know about my mom. I've been thinking of her so much lately and then received the news. I didn't want to believe it and at first thought it couldn't be true. I know she was so proud of you two and your families and loved you all so much. She was one in a million and I will always cherish the special memories I have of her. She is at peace now and will always be with you. My thoughts and prayers are with you both and your families always.
I was deeply saddened to hear of auntie Marilyn's passing. I have very fond memories of your mom growing up, but most of all her smile and humor will never be forgotten. Dad used to say that I was a lot like your mom. You are in my thoughts. My heart goes out to all of you. Love to all
STEVE, HEATHER AND FAMILY. PRAYERS AND KUDOS GO OUT TO YOU FOR THE FINE CARE YOU GAVE TO YOUR MOM. I"LL ALWAYS REMEMBER OUR TRIP TO SARASOTA, THE NIGHTS WE JUST SAT AND TALKED, HER HUMOR, HER WAY OF ALWAYS MAKING FOLKS FEEL WELCOME. SHE HAD A GENUINE FEELING ABOUT EVERYONE SHE TOUCHED. GOD BLESS YOU ALL. LOVE PAT AND BILL
Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Sheila and Merv.
Dear Steve and Heather, Sending our thoughts and prayers to all the family. We had such a lovely time with your mum anytime we met, last time being at Nancy's wedding sharing the same hotel -she was such fun. Aunt Chris sends her love and thoughts too. Love from all the Bowman family in Scotland.
Our hearts go out to the Bowman family during this sad time. Marilyn was a fantastic lady leaving everyone with a lot of great memories! Condolences from the Evans family.
Heather and Steve, I am so sorry to hear that your Mum had passed. I told Mac that I never would have made it to 95% of my Learning Loft appointments if it wasn't for Marilyn. She was always there with a smile, provided gentle encouragement and sometimes a (much needed) gentle kick in the butt! Although I am sure that this is a sad time for both of you and your families, I hope that you can find comfort in the countless, happy memories of her. She was a fantastic lady! Love to you all, Marcia.
Dear Heather and Steve, There a few words to adequately express our heartfelt sadness to you and your families. Marilyn was a lovely lady who cherished you all so very deeply. Please know that you are in our thoughts and our hearts. Love, Helen and Derek
Heather, Joel and Family, We are so truly sorry to hear the sad news of your moms passing.

So sorry with deepest sympathy Wendy & Family
We are so deeply saddened by the passing of Marilyn! She was such a lovely lady who always had a smile on her face and was full of jokes!!

To Marilyn's family I wanted to send you my condolences on the loss of a very special lady. I am Richard Klojgaard's sister and although I had met Marilyn a couple of times, she was a person that you were instantly drawn to. She had a very bubbly personality, very warm and someone you liked the minute you met her. Please accept my sincere condolences, she will be missed

Dear Heather I am very sorry to hear of the loss of your Mom. I will always remember the great fun we had when she would come to our soccer games and to visit the Garden Centre, and of course the love she had for her 2 cats (of which I had the fortune to cat-sit). With sympathy, Suzanne
