Harris, Marilyn Elizabeth

Fortified with the Sacraments of Holy Mother Church on Tuesday, November 28, 2023, at the age of 85. Preceded in death by her parents, Euland “Tom” and Sylvia Harris (nee Wodecker), and her sisters, LaRita (surviving Art) Hovis and Jeannine (the late Harold) Sullentrup. Marilyn is survived by her sister, Judith (the late Paul) Bruegger, and her brother, Wayne (Suzanne) Harris, along with many nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews, cousins, other relatives, and friends.

Marilyn’s life revolved around her family. As an adult, she was a devoted caretaker to her parents until their passing. She was the beloved second grandmother known as “Marmaw” to many of her great-nieces and great-nephews. Marilyn’s love extended to her many dogs, especially Daisy. Marilyn was a longtime member of Immaculate Heart of Mary Catholic Church.
