Elaine Kennedy (No Married Name) (1965)

Marilyn was one of the most beautiful souls God sent to this earth. There wasn't a person in the world she would go out of her way to help. I remember being in the hospital for about one week, some years before her death. Marilyn cut fresh flowers from her yard, and rode her bike to the hospital to visit me, every day.  She wasn't just my sister, she was like my mother.

I think about her often, and pray that she will be there to meet me when it's my time to make the journey to the hearafter. 

Love You Marilyn
