Hau'oli la hanau Marilyn!

April 9, 2022
Had a wonderful time with you in spirit, with a small ohana with granddaughters and your daughters, sharing thoughts and memories on your birthday, 4/6/2022, at your young age of 67 years!  We all sang happy birthday to you in your bedroom that day.  Sorely still missing you; yet love that your undying presence is still with us....along with Akua's blessing for us.  I love you my Honey!

Marilyn, you were the only one of my childhood friends that kept in touch.  We went to Aikahi Park Elementary School, Kalaheo Intermediate, and Kailua High School, together.  I probably would have lost track of you except for you reaching out.  I loved the wonderful letters you wrote.  You kept us connected.  You also visited me with your brother at my home in New Mexico. 
I used to go to the Waimanalo Stables with you and Julie and just watch your love for horses.  Days at the beach, basket ball, your beautiful dog (Hoa Hale?) grabbing my pet chicken (the chicken was fine), meeting your first baby, Paul, and visiting you in your home at North Shore. 
I was so proud of the woman you became.  Nurse, wife, mother, animal lover.
I am so very sorry that you left this world.  A light gone out.  I am sure you faced cancer with grace and dignity.  You are at eternal peace now, my long time friend.   Mahalo and aloha,       Diane Carlstead-Noveroske

Marilyn, my dear friend of 50 years, I won’t say goodbye as I will see you again. We met in 1969, and knowing you has made me a much better person; I am so grateful for your friendship. You helped me adjust to life in Hawaii, you helped me mother my children and many more of life’s challenges. Your heart was so big that you could love and cherish your husband and children, and give of yourself without reservation to all you encountered. You shared your natural empathy and kindness with all God’s creatures. You chose nursing as a vocation, and I believe that it was your true life’s calling. I remember when we were sixteen; I loved to watch you ride because you were truly one with the horse. You felt their moods and concerns, and made them know it was ok. In my mind’s eye, I see you jumping Slim Jim, and riding Nijm in the dressage arena, so happy and at peace. You are always in my heart, and I know you are watching over your wonderful family with so much love. 

All of my love forever, your friend Mary
