Such a nice lady. I can’t imagine how many hours she put in at swim meets. Her friendly smile and easy demeanor made checking in and admin tasks at meets a pleasure. She will be missed.
Marilyn was a great lady – always positive and always helpful
May she rest in peace
Thank you all volunteers that have this type of spirit!
