Death notice for the town of: Palmerston, Province: Ontario
The world has lost a beautiful person. Merilyn was generous to everyone she met. Who did not sport a sweater, scarf, baby outfit, afgan, poncho or other knitted garmet. Her fingers flew for years, making “Merilyn Marshall Originals” for everyone. And her humour! One could not be very long in her presence before seeing the the light side side of any subject. She loved her family with a passion. She spoke affectionately of her surround of family, neices and nephews, grandchildren, neighbours and friends and helpful care workers. We will miss her tremendously. Our most sincerest condolences. Cathie & Jean-Pierre
