Dear Scott and extended family,
Sending love and prayer to you during your time of grief. I’m so sorry for your loss. I will cherish memories of “Mrs Waldner” at Ellwood, as she was a beautiful, optimistic teacher and leader, always kind and patient, often smiling, always supportive – unique in so many ways.

Marilyn was such a beautiful and joyful person. So many great memories growing up – walking across the corn field to the Waldner house hanging out in the kitchen for laughs, games and fun. Weekends with our parents hanging out (Friday nights at the Cardwell Arms) and living in small town Bolton (at the time).
Condolences to Scott and family. May you continue to cherish the memories of this beautiful person and continue to hear that contagious laugh.
With love,
Moira Chevalier
Dear Scott, your Mom was a wonderful woman and a great educator. My thoughts and prayers are with you through this difficult time. Moira

Ken and Chris Graham
To Scott, Sigi and family,
I was shocked to hear of the sudden death of my talented teaching partner from Ellwood Memorial Public School. It was only about 3 weeks ago that by chance I had a nice visit with her at Headwaters Hospital after she had a slight fall. We reminisced and laughed about about our teaching friends and she asked how they were doing. Marilyn had a fun way of dealing with anyone and she was always the life of the party. Her son Scott, who I enjoyed teaching in grade 6, was very much like his mother.
Both of them loved life, despite their trajedies, and could adapt quickly to any situation. We will miss Marilyn greatly and hope she can reunite with Lisa and Chris.

I knew Marilyn years ago from teaching. I didn’t know her well, but I always appreciated her positive nature, her sense of fun and her ability to work well with others. She was a real asset to education.

Scott,
I only had the pleasure of knowing your Mom for just a short while but in that time grew to be very fond and attached to her.
She always greeted me with warmth & kindness. Her precious smile lit up like an Angel. I admired her fiestyness and her witty quick responses or how she would turn a compliment given to her into a humorous little joke.
She was a strong woman that had to endure the loss of two of her very own children and as sad as I am to hear of your losses I can’t help but smile knowing she is once again reunited with them.
Heaven gained another “Angel” when she passed.
It was an honour & privilege in getting to know her. She will be greatly missed!
She was blessed to have a son who loved her so dearly and who took such great care of her right to the very end!
My prayers are with you & extended family as you go through this difficult time in having to say goodbye!
Love you my friend!

Marilyn was such a vibrant woman who knew how to have fun. She was a golfing, bridge and walking friend and a great neighbour. She could light up a room and always had a clever repartee. She loved her family, her career and her garden.
We miss her,
