It is with sad hearts we announce the passing of Marilyn Marlene (Parks) Munn, beloved wife and companion of Lawrence Richard, which occurred at her residence at St. George NB on January 13, 2022. Born in Saint John NB on August 9, 1948, she was a daughter of the late Arthur and Alice (Spinney) Parks.

A loving wife, mother, stepmother, grandmother, sister and aunt, she is survived by her husband Lawrence, sons: Ross (Leanne) Munn of Bedford NS and Rodney Munn of St. George NB; special grandsons: Alexander, Callum and Connor Munn; stepdaughters: Judy (Torben) Eilerson of St. George NB, Suzan (Danny) Canning of St. Stephen NB, Lorraine (Glenn) Leland of Caithness NB, Penny (Wade) Anderson of Pennfield NB and Sandi Richard (Gary Yeo) of St. George NB as well as their families; her brother: Byron (Anne) Parks of Port Hawksbury NS; her sisters: Inez Taylor of St. George and Lois (Eugene) McLanaghan of Pennfield NB; her nieces: Lisa (Jim) Needle St. George NB and Melissa Saunders of Saint John NB; and grand nephews: Zachary Needle and Liam Saunders. She was predeceased by her very special brother in law, Eugene Taylor.

Prior to her retirement, Marilyn worked for a number of employers, including waitressing for Ruby Thorne, and for Ossie’s Lunch, managing the Main Street Convenience Store in St. George, and working for the St. Andrews Biological Station, with her last position being in the labeling room at Connors Brothers for whom she worked for more than 20 years. She truly adored her family, especially her grandsons. In her younger years, she was an avid curler.  She enjoyed having houseplants and gardening as well as going for long drives to see covered bridges. She had developed quite a collection. Marilyn also had a passion for china dishes and sets, always admiring a beautiful new piece. She was an exceptional cook and loved cookbooks, or a new recipe. Her rhubarb squares were amazing and her cooking passion developed from her grandmother, Stella (Smith) Spinney, and her aunt, Beulah (Spinney) Dewar. She will be truly missed and always remembered.

Arrangements in the care of the St. George Funeral Home (755-3533) 26 Portage Street, St. George NB. In keeping with Marilyn's wishes, there will be no visiting or service at this time. A graveside service will be held at the St. George Rural Cemetery in the spring. In Marilyn's memory, donations to a charity of one’s choice or the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) would be appreciated by the family.
