A life-long friend and presence, sorry to see the last elder of the Stautz-Baker saga pass. Marilyn's cinnamon rolls were something special! Many good memories coming back as I write. Marilyn's mischievous laugh was one of a kind. I wonder if Alan remembers how happy she was with the 'swamp bouquet' we collected on the water in Canada? Then there was Carol telling how on a hot day (before a/c in the car) she and her mom would put up the windows at street corners to pretend that *they* had air conditioning! Of course, the tall tales we built up around her and our mom's time in Jackson and the dance troop. Also remember her proudly wondering when Tom learned to sing (as he took a part in a play, I believe). Too much to write.
Really sorry not being able to attend the memorial.
Our condolences to all of the Stautz family.
Dean, Antonia, Olivia, Anna
Grandma Stautz was a treasure and she will be greatly missed. My thoughts and love go out to the whole family. Xo, Haley Stautz
Although our family did not know Marilyn personally we love her son Tom and his family. To you, her legacy we offer our condolences in your time of grief. She had to be a pretty amazing person simply based on knowing her son and family. We love you all.

I will always treasure that warm smile and wonderful peach cobbler. We would sit and chat about family that will always remain between the two of us. I will truly miss my favorite Aunt. Joe O’Leary
