    You are missed already, M. You were a guiding light and my second mother. Your leadership and personality has contributed heavily to who I am today and I’ll never forget it. Plus you taught me how to have a green thumb and give to others through service and plants. Rest in peace.

    The most wonderful boss to work for, she treated us all like family. I learned so much from her about farming, baking, and life! Most caring person I have come across in this life. You will be surely missed

    Bob, Every single day, as we pass the rose bushes you and Marilyn gave us from the Farm we think of you both and those days. Betsy tells rhe story of asking you, so tall above her for a job in the berry field. Carrie, I remember you in my class so well and the talks Mom and I had as you were growing up. Jen, Bill and I remember you as you moved out on your own. So many memories and Marilyn the center of it all. How you all will miss her and how terribly sad we are to know she is no longer with us. Love to you all at this difficult time.

    Bob, Carrie, Jen and family, I am so very sorry for your loss. Marilyn was such a wonderful woman. She pioneered the modern farm stand in the Upper Valley at Cedar Circle, made Marjorie’s favorite lemon meringue pies for our Thanksgiving table, was an energizer bunny in the community running the Thetford plant table at the summer Fair, organizing and hanging the greens at the Thetford Hill church and so much more. She was one of the best friends I will ever have. Sending so much love to you all.
