Marilyn was such a good friend to the Pierce family. She will be dearly missed !
I worked with Marilyn at EBS, and she helped me get acclimated to working in my first job. Always friendly and pleasure to see every day. My wife and I bake a chocolate chip cookie recipe from Marilyn each holiday season for our friends. Except for 2020 we end up baking about 600 cookies to share with friends and family… We always get compliments…but never share her “secret” recipe.
May her memory be a blessing.
Marilyn and I both were secretaries at Edison Brothers. She was a good friend and my lunch buddy. We always had lots of laughs. I was the Mom of two boys at the time and she was the Mom of two girls who, by the way, she was very proud of. We always had fun. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to her family. May she rest in peace.
