Marilyn's obituary

This memorial was created in honor of Marilyn June Sparks of Melbourne, Florida. Marilyn was born on December 31, 1954 in the town of Dauphin in Manitoba, Canada and passed on March 23, 2020 in her Melbourne home.

In her 65 years, Marilyn touched the lives of countless people who will always remember the warmth & happiness she brought with her. Not one for beating around the bush, Marilyn would tell you like it is. She would let you know if she thought you were "stuck on stupid."

Marilyn began her battle with cancer in 2015. She was determined to beat it, and she did--5 different times. No one could deny she was a fighter. Her will to fight and live never wavered but her body had been through so much.

Marilyn is survived by her spouse, Richard Sparks, daughter, Denise D'Amore, sons, Joseph Paulin & Brian Machovec, and grandchildren, Pietro D'Amore, Lucia D'Amore, Antonio D'Amore, Matteo D'Amore, Nico D'Amore, Liliana D'Amore, and Oliver Paulin.
