My sympathy to you all on Marilyn's passing. It's unbelievable how many years have gone by since we moved in next door to you all on Hillside Terrace in 1966. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Rest in peace Marilyn. We were all so lucky to have you and Carolyn in our lives.
You raised a wonderful family. We grieve for you and were SO lucky to have you in our midst. I know that God and the terrific Saydah children and grandchildren will be a source of great consolation during these trying times/ God bless you all.
