Born in Middletown, Ohio on August 2, 1951, to Walter and Lella (NEE Whitt) Perry, Marilyn was a beloved daughter, sister, mother, grandmother, and friend. She spent most of her life in the Springboro and Lebanon, Ohio areas, where she built a rich tapestry of memories and connections. She attended Lebanon High School and dedicated many years to a fulfilling career at Met Life. Marilyn's spirit was vibrant and full of life. She cherished time spent boating, feeling the wind in her hair and the sun on her face as she enjoyed the open water. She also loved playing games and sharing delicious meals with loved ones. Above all, her greatest joy was found in the company of her grandchildren, who she loved beyond measure. Marilyn is preceded in death by her parents Walter and Lella Perry, her son Skip Young, her husbands' Lawrence Brown and Douglas Young, her brothers Merville Perry and Phillip Perry, and her sister Bonnie (NE Perry) Newman. She is survived by her cherished grandchildren Josh Young, Cassandra Young, Ashlee (Nathan) Young-Gibson, and Adessa Back, as well as her adored great-grandsons Tucker and Gus Young. Marilyn also leaves behind her dear sister-in-law Gail Perry and many nieces and nephews who will miss her dearly.
