I knew Marilyn as "Tara's mom" and she was a true southern gentle-woman - she was gracious, and always greeted everyone with a smile and the offer of an iced tea or lemonade. She was a proud mama and doted on Tara's success. In later years, she would ask after my own mother whenever I saw her and I know they bumped into each other upon occasion at the grocery store and would swap stories about Tara and me. I believe she is at peace now and free from pain, and I know she will be missed by her family.
