After a successful career managing doctor offices, she married Conrad Gillaspie, becoming a Navy wife, moving from Idaho Falls to Northern California as Conrad's deployments changed. They finally settled in Hot Springs, South Dakota, where she put her organizational skills and creative talents into establishing and running the very successful Rocking G Bed 'n Breakfast.
In September 1999, Conrad and Marilyn moved to Midland. There she served her church as Eucharist minister and loved nothing more than to quietly work her magic with knitting needles or cross-stitch creating works of art and love.
After Conrad's death on February 2, 2000, Marilyn continued to make her home in Midland, where she has since resided.
She will be missed by her family which includes four sons; one daughter; five grandchildren; one brother; four sisters; her step-mother Patricia Wiedower of El Cajon, California; and a host of other relatives and friends.
In addition to her husband, Marilyn was preceded in death by her parents, and a sister Madeline Wiedower.
A rosary service was held at 9:30 a.m. Saturday, November 17, at St. William Catholic Church in Midland. Mass of Christian Burial was held 10:00 a.m. Saturday, November 17, at St. William Catholic Church in Midland, with Father Kevin Achbach as celebrant.
Interment was at the Midland Cemetery.
