I picked a blue candle because I always thought you looked so good in blue. -) You were loved and will be very much missed by so many. I consider myself blessed to have known you the last 18 years. I was so young when we started working together. You have seen both of my children born and watched them grow up. Thank you for everything you taught me!!! Until I see you again…….
I love you Marilyn Park! Working with you for the past 10 years has been a joy and you will be deeply missed by all. I send love and prayers to your family at this time. May God give them peace and comfort. Cindy House

Marilyn was a very nice lady that I thought a lot of. She used to come into my office for help when I worked at the Nash County tax office. I have many fond memories of her. She was always polite and worked hard at her job. I have not seen her very much since I retired but I will certainly keep her family in my thoughts and prayers. So very sorry for your loss.
