Born in Coxsackie, NY she moved to Arizona at an early age. She had a particular love and unique appreciation of the Southwest which she passed on to her children. Marilyn was a gifted interior decorator who had an eye for detail and arrangement.

She and her late husband Del were owners of Arizona Furniture and active members of the Elks, where they made and enjoyed many friends. They were always to friends and employees. Prior to being a store owner, she went from being a stay at home mother of four, to legal secretary and owner of a private in-home day care.

Marilyn loved to dance, go on cruises, camp and travel both domestically and abroad. She was always proud of her children and grandchildren, as they were of her. Marilyn loved to have fun and developed a keen sense of humor, especially in her later years.
