Debra Cruise wrote a sympathy message

“Our heart is so sad with the passing of your Beloved Mom, Grandmother, and Great Grandmother. I still remember the 1st day that Marilyn came to work at Illinois State University. Our family had a connection my grandparents lived by her mom and dad. I had never met her before, but we became fast friends. Many fun memories at Rambo House, seeing each other at lunchtime. Also came to know Kim at work, and Becky and Lawney were neighbors in Normal. Prayers and Love. Deb and Don Cruise”
