I can't believe today is the 67th anniversary of Marilyn. It seems like only yesterday we were talking about this, however another year has passed. Growing up with Marilyn, her family and friends in Goldsboro, NC was a blast. I now live in Everett, WA just North of Seattle. I still keep of with friends in Goldsboro that we both knew on Facebook. I hope everyone keeps up with all the people we knew in those days. God Bless you Marilyn.

I only found out just now, on her birthday, that Marilyn passed in 2015... It came as a shock to me. I live in Belgium, Marilyn and I met in Goldsboro, NC in 2003, when I was visiting a good friend, her neighbor. We spent Thanksgiving at her house. Marilyn was a wonderful person, I'm so sorry she died.... RIP my friend!

I am stiil at a loss for words. Marilyn was indeed a very special person and I feel very blessed to have known her and count her as one of my dearest and true friends. Having this special friendship surviving all these years was no accident. The empty hole in my heart hurts constantly. Marilyn was unique and loved by all.

Our good friend and kindred soul Marilyn Gaskins Gordon has moved on from this physical existence to her soul journey. I'm sure that many will agree when I say Marilyn was a very special person. I am blessed to have known her. Wait for us on the other side Marilyn. Life is but a blink of an eye in time eternal. We will be with you shortly.

Marilyn,
You were a good friend of the family and a good personal friend growing up. You will be truly missed but never forgotten. You will never really be gone as long as people remember you and talk about the good times they were fortunate enough to spend with you.

Dear Marilyn,
You have shocked us all! How does one begin to say what only the heart understands. You were always an amazing friend! Compassionate, loving, a defender of the less fortunate and always kind with your words. A truth to your heart and soul. You hated conflict and wanted to only see the best in people, wanting everyone to share in this thing we call peace and love. You always had my back and I am sure the backs of all those you loved.
We would talk for hours about life, children, God, our hopes and dreams and the causes we both believed in. I guess this means you aren't coming to New Mexico this fall.
Rest in Peace my beautiful friend. Stop in to say "Hello" from time to time, and give us a report on the wonders of the other side! I will always love you! ~Sue Schaeffer

Memories of a very special lady, with a wicked sense of humour, you made me laugh on lots of occasions. What did I expect when you were born in such a great village. You could take the girl out of Edlington but you couldn't take Edlington out of the girl. RIP lovely lady. xxx

Big Trip Out West
July 17, 2015
I only got to hear this story once, I'm sure, hopefully, others have heard it before, and may have a better recollection of the details.
"When I was 18, I took a trip out west with three friends," she said, when she learned I was living in Las Cruces, New Mexico. 'I liked Las Cruces," she assured me. I laughed, because Las Cruces 40 years ago was truly a dusty little desert town.
They had all worked together to earn money for the trip and the car was in bad shape, but they had a blast anyway. Including being caught in a desert rain storm.
Her favorite memory from the trip was coming across a store that had cowboy boots on sale for $10 and they each bought a pair. When her and the other girl got tired of the guys they were with, they left them in the mountains somewhere in Utah, and hitchhiked back to town, catching a ride with a Morman family.
I miss her so much.
