She cherished her family above all else and was deeply proud of each of them. Known for her generous heart, Marilyn lovingly knitted hats and blankets for premature babies, as well as lap blankets that she donated to hospitals and those in need. She enjoyed playing games, especially Scrabble with Pauline, and was a devoted partner to her husband John in both life and farming, offering unwavering love and support throughout their 54 years of marriage.
A private family funeral service will be held at Haskett Funeral Home. Interment Exeter Cemetery.
