Marilyn’s family: I'm so sorry for your loss. I went through a similar situation and I was very helped by the hope that I found in the Bible in John 5:28, which says, "Do not amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out". I am sending you a link with more information on this hope.

I never had the privilege of meeting Marylin but the love that Al had for her was undeniable every time I saw him. I learned of her vivacious spirit and how much she enjoyed life through the stories he shared with me. The love they had for each other is undying. Undying love just like the spirit will always be remembered and treasured. God bless and prayers of peace to all the family!
Dear Family of My Friend Marilyn:
I am so very sad that you have lost this beautiful woman who so loved you all, especially her children. We were friends at Newmark and even spent time together with my children years ago at the beach.
Your loss is a loss to many. My prayers are with you all.
Sincerely,
Alice DiMarzio
My deepest sympathy to the entire family for your loss. I know that no words can help ease the pain and loss that you are feeling right now. May our loving Father give the entire family sustenance and strength you need to continue cope with the loss of your loved one. May you find comfort in your precious memories and love shared. May the words of 1 Peter 5:7 “while you throw all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you” bring the entire family comfort and strength. Please accept my sincere condolences.
Marilyn, you were the best part of my life. It took me 57 years to find my one true, uncompromised love. We laughed together, traveled together, we explored together, we shared ourselves with each other. We were a great team that strengthened ourselves.
I miss you so much. Your presence will never leave me, I will forever be one with you.
We living do not know what you are feeling, sensing, or seeing. My only hope is you are at total peace and without any pain. My final wish is to someday be with your spirit.
All my love forever,
Your Alan
