She also loved to collect her treasured “baby dolls” as she called them. She took great pride in honing her culinary skills and bringing her famous dishes and desserts to family gatherings. She extended her kindness to those in need, always offering prayers and guidance. Marilyn was a devoted caregiver to her husband.
