Updates

Update from Sept. 26, 2025

*Funeral Update*

The funeral tomorrow will go forward as planned, with one change: there will not be a graveside service afterward. Dee Sr. had hoped to be part of every aspect of Marilyn’s service, including the graveside. Since he is unable to be there right now, we will hold a simple immediate family graveside service at a later date. His words will still be shared during the funeral tomorrow.
Thank you for your love and support as we gather to honor Marilyn’s life.

Update from Sept. 25, 2025

*UPDATE* Dee Conger Sr. has been in the hospital with Influenza A. Due to this illness, we want to be cautious and mindful of everyone’s health. If you are older, at risk, or prefer not to be around possible exposure, please know we completely understand and encourage you not to attend. Your continual thoughts, prayers, and messages of support and love mean the world to us.
