She enjoyed spending time each month with friends in their RV Camping Club, and playing cards with friends, especially solitaire, euchre, and pinochle. Marilyn enjoyed reading, doing small cross-stitch projects, and cherished spending time with family.
Marilyn was preceded in death by her daughter, Ann Tiedemann-Angell; parents; and brothers, Harold and Kenneth Hoffman.
I’m so sorry to hear of Marilyn’s passing. She and Patsy Sommerville were rock stars in the Registrar’s Office for many years and I have great memories of her during that time. My sympathy to and prayers for her family. It has got to be a comfort to know that she is once again with Ann.

Sorry to hear of Marilyn’s passing. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers. Mike Reiling
Dear Bernard, Kevin, Jeff and Terry. I’m so sorry for the loss of your loved one, Marilyn. My husband, Dave, and I are in Florida, so were unable to pay our respects in person. Marilyn was such a sweetheart, and I enjoyed our friendship that grew during all those years I babysat ..way back when you still lived in the basement of your home. I’m sure Anne was right there waiting in heaven for her, and they had a grand reunion. I’m assuming you heard our mom (Millie Smith) has Alzheimers also, so we know what a difficult time this was for all of you. May the good memories give you peace and strength during this time, and may Marilyn rest in peace as her suffering is over. Sending hugs and love, Suzanne ‘Smith’ Nelson
