Marilyn was a minister by trade, as well as, co-owning one of the first lawn maintenance businesses in Benton with her husband Dale. Marilyn not only faithfully attended New Jenny Ridge Pentecostal Church, but helped pioneer two other churches; Pentecostal Church of God and Trinity Pentecostal.
Marilyn’s compassion, faith and work ethic was exemplary and is evident in her ministries and service to others and was also apparent in the years she solely continued her and Dales’ mowing business after his passing. Marilyn led quite a fulfilling life and made all her years spent on this earth count with service to others. 1 Peter 4:30, quite accurately depicts Marilyn’s life, “As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace.”
