My aunt Marilyn was my Dad's sister. After both my folks had passed we developed a lovely pen pal relationship over the years and spoke on the phone from time to time too. It was always so much fun to chat with her. I love her elegant handwriting and have kept and will treasure many of her letters. I know she was a great teacher like my parents. My sincerest condolences to her boys, my cousins: Alex, David and John. I will miss your Mom very much. All My Love.

Marilyn was my aunt, my Dad's sister. Although we live on the other side of the country, we developed a very nice pen pal relationship over the years and spoke on the phone a fair bit too. I loved hearing all about the Stetson family from her. she was always so fun to talk to. I know she was a great teacher like my parents, and her handwriting was just so beautiful, I have kept many of her letters and will cherish them always. Sincerest condolences to my cousins Alex, David, and John, I will miss your Mom. All my Love.

Mrs. Hepburn was our neighbor in Roselle Park for 24 years and taught all 3 of my children you couldn't ask for a nicer lady. My kids still talk about when they would go to her house to see the snake. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Marilyn Hepburn was my neighbor. I send my deepest sympathies to the Hepburn family upon hearing of her passing. Marilyn was a dear & wonderful person. We had many conversations through the years mostly about family whom she loved very much & so very proud of too. she talked about her days as a teacher years ago when she lived in New Jersey. I can guess she made a big impression (all good) on her students. She will be missed & loved by all that knew her. Now she is up in Heaven with the Lord and now she is once again holding her husband Al & her youngest son Chris in her arms. Rest in Peace Marilyn Hepburn... Joyce Thomas

I will always remember Marilyn as my co teacher and friend ! She was an amazing role model to me when I was a new teacher. Our friendship grew professionally and personally and we remained in contact throughout the years. Marilyn had an amazing energy and enthusiasm for her students.
She was always upbeat and happy. I will miss her forever !
