d/o Thomas V. Hinchey and Mary Frances (Watson) Hinchey; w/o James Gerald Phillips
Marilyn graduated from Cathedral High School in Manhattan and worked at National City Bank on Wall Street in NYC before her marriage to James Gerald Phillips in 1953. Together, they raised six children. The family moved to Fairfield, CT in 1969 and once her children were all in school, Marilyn worked as a Customer Service Manager at ConCo Medical, Inc. of Bridgeport.
One of Marilyn's passions was singing. Her beautiful soprano voice could be heard in the choirs at St. Nicholas of Tolentine Church in the Bronx, St. Thomas Church of Fairfield and St. James Church of Stratford. Marilyn sang for a short time period with The Academy Singers of Easton and was very proud of her numerous solo performances. In addition to singing, Marilyn's passions and talents included sewing, cooking, traveling and entertaining her large family.
Marilyn and her husband, Jay, retired and moved to Oronoque Village in Stratford in 1994. She promptly became active in the Oronoque community and was a member of the Garden Club, and on the board of the Fun Seekers Club that organized dinners, dances, and trips throughout the Northeast. In 2000, Marilyn's love for singing prompted her to become the primary organizer and founder of the Village Voices, a 35+ member choral group that performed many concerts at Oronoque and throughout the region for years.
Marilyn was predeceased by her husband of 62 years and her two brothers. She is survived by four daughters and two sons; grandchildren.
Interment at the Gate of Heaven Cemetery, Trumbull.
