This is more of a remembrance that I have of Marilyn who graduated with me at Julienne. She was always smiling and full of enthusiasm a trati she kept until her final years. IFor her many outstanding achievements, it seemed onlt right  to nominate her as an outstanding C-J graduate. In the middle of her many activities she tried to make our  twice a-year class luncheons a priority as we all grew older. When she found out she had terminal cancer she let me know so that I could inform the many class members who have email ad others who keep in touch by phone. Much to our surprise she came to our lunch gathering in April and refused to make herself the center of our consoling thoughts;  It was she who was consoling us! She loved God and people and I know she is praying for all she loved now that she is in God's presence. I will not be able to make it to her funeral, but she and her family already have a special place in my prayers.
