Marilyn was a loving mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend. She dedicated her life to her family and was known for her kindness, love, deep faith, sense of humor and ice cream. She rented a lake house annually so all of the family could spend time together. Her spirit will be remembered by all who knew her.

She graduated from Baraboo High School Class of 1947 and Milwaukee County Hospital School of Nursing in 1950. She married her high school sweetheart, Herbert G. LeMoine on March 25, 1951.

They moved to Platteville, Wisconsin in 1955 when a business opportunity opened up to own a shoe store. Marilyn worked as a RN at that time in private duty, the hospital and lastly at Doctor's Park Clinic. After 33 years, they bought land outside of LaValle/Reedsburg and built a home where they resided for 17 years in the beauty of the countryside. After Herbert's death, Marilyn moved to Verona to be near her children.
