Michael and I send our sincerest condolences to Cathy and all of the family. I have the fondest memories of your mother as a most gracious lady with a beautiful smile. She and your dad welcomed me into their home and their cottage on many, many occasions. One of these occasions was very special when they invited me and my bridesmaids to get ready prior to our wedding. I am remembering many wonderful visits and Michael joins me in sending our sympathy and hugs to all. Fondly, Jane and Michael

Many years ago, when I was a new member of the Volunteer Committee to the London Regional Art Gallery (even before it acquired that "new" name!), Marilynne welcomed me and made me feel part of the organization. Even now, I remember her kindness and generosity of spirit. My condolences to all the family. Sincerely, Judy Colbert

First I want to say on behalf of my mother (Greta Pulford), how sorry she was to hear about Marilynne's passing. While they have not seen as much of each other in recent years, Greta was very fond of Marilynne. She found her to be a warm, genuine and caring person. Her friendship meant a lot. Greta would like to have attended the visition however is currently in long term care and it is not easy for her to get around. Second, I want to say how sorry I was to hear this news. Your mother was a very fine lady. She was kind and caring with a very soft and gentle demeanor. She had a beautiful and welcoming smile. The world needs more Marilynne Fullers. I am sad to say 'good bye'.
