I did not know Marilynn but her life seemed so full filling and was loved by so many. She was certainly a loving person you would never forget and always enjoyed. RIP
To the family of Marilynn and Bob, Friends forever, I met them when they first came to Ames. Lots of memeories. Ed Hendrickson, sr, Okoboji
One of my favorite people - was a privilege to know and care for Marilyn in my years at Northcrest. She was a beautiful, talented, and kind women and I enjoyed our many conversations over the years. Every year when I put up our Christmas decorations, I pull out a red, felt cardinal ornament that she made me. I’ll always treasure it and smile when I think of her. \u2665\ufe0f
My condolences on Marilynn's passing. I remember her fondly from my experiences at ACTORS, and my father *always* called her "Queenie," from her performance as Queen Aggravain in "Once Upon a Mattress" with him in the 1960s. A truly talented woman.
Marillyn's spirit remains with me all these years, after many years of shared experiences in the UCC church of Ames. I grew up adoring her for her wit, her kindness and laughter, talent and beauty. She was THIS little girl's, teenager's and adult's role model. She was part of the Exner family's makeup.
Angels watch over Marilynn's family,
Heide (Exner) Larson
We remember when she was the amazing Mary Poppins in a calendar the retirement community put out. We had her autograph it for us and she did. Thank you to her family for sharing this amazing woman with us.
We cleaned for Mr. & Mrs. Curry in their townhome. Mrs. Curry made us Christmas ornaments one year for our trees. Her laugh was contagious and her smile could brighten up any room. I remember the year she made her granddaughters bath robes for Christmas.It was a blessing to know them both and clean for them. We were more than just cleaning ladies we were treated like family.
