In her early married years, the family lived in Medicine Lodge Kansas and moved to Stafford in 1962. Marilyn owned and operated the Daylight Donut shop.

She also helped with the junior bowling league and enjoyed watching the girls play softball. The family was transferred to El Dorado in 1976. Marilyn worked at various jobs including restaurants, TG & Y, and Walmart before becoming a stay-at-home mom. As her son, Jason got older and played sports she supported him in football, and baseball and later motocross.
