Marilyn Olivia Gunn

In Loving Memory

Marilyn Olivia Gunn, 86, passed away peacefully on March 3, 2026.  

She loved her Lord, Jesus, and was a dedicated Christian who devoted her life to God and her family. Marilyn never met a stranger and left a lasting impression on all who knew her. She loved to dote on and spoil her grand and great grandchildren as well as her “granddogs”. 

She is survived by her children, Janice (Eddie) Satterfield, James Lynch, Tammy (David) Holland, and Kelly (Steven) Smith; nine stepchildren; nine grandchildren; and eleven great grandchildren. 

She was predeceased by her husband of 43 years, Phil Gunn.
