Marilyn was a recipient of a double-lung transplant in April of 2003, at University of Colorado Hospital. Just 4 days shy of 22 years, she lived and displayed strength, courage, gratitude, and humor every day.

Marilyn loved animals; domestic, wildlife, and stray and did all she could for them. From feeding and caring for cats and birds in Texas; to the birds, wild bunnies, and her grand puppies in Colorado.
