So sorry to be away at this time and unable to join the celebration of the life of such an amazing woman and very dear friend . Today I was able to attend a service at Westminster Abbey , light a candle for Marilyn and ask for prayers to be said for the Boustead family . Such a little thing to do for someone who was always there for me , supporting our family , caring and loving always .
We have shared so many stories and our love for family always so strong . Marilyn always shared stories about Wallace and their boys and especially stories about her grand children... she loved you all so much ... never forget that .
Lots a love
Steph and Joey

I believe that tears can heal,
That memories can comfort,
And love will last forever.

And now, may the warming love of friends and family,
surround you, Wallace and family, as you go,
down the path of love and laughter,
where all the happy memories go.

Our love, Shirley and Doug

We will certainly miss Marilyn at the Swansea Historical Society as well as the Happy Hoofers meetings. She was a wonderful friend who spoke highly of her family and their adventures and their cottage.
