Marilyn Wisler Obituary

MARILYN LUCILE WISLER
November 16, 1940 December 1, 2020
After a hard fought battle with Parkinson's disease and a short time living with Pancreatic Cancer, Marilyn Lucile Wisler passed away on December 1st, 2020. Marilyn is survived by her husband, Bill Killa. She is also survived by her three sons: Scott and wife Tina, Dean and wife Amy, Jay and wife Michelle and five grandchildren: Kyle, Jenna and Micayla, Jackson and Sam, and her two brothers: Harold Blowey and Richard Blowey.
Marilyn was born in Haviland, Kansas to Rozelle Blowey and Lucile Blowey. Marilyn grew up in Augusta, Kansas and later attended Emporia State College. She moved to Colorado in 1961 where she raised her three sons and had a successful career as an Executive Assistant. Marilyn was an avid tennis player for many years and enjoyed attending her three boys sporting events. Marilyn had many beloved lifetime friends that she spoke to often and they meant the world to her.
Marilyn was a beautiful woman on the inside and out and was a role model to her sons, daughters-in-law and grandkids in how to be both strong and kind-hearted. We will all miss her smile and her laugh, as she found joy and humor in everything. Marilyn was much loved and will be greatly missed.
In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the Parkinson's Foundation in her memory. No services are planned at this time.

I worked with her at Digital Equipment and consider her a friend. She was such a role model to me when I first started working. I am so sorry to hear of Marilyn's passing. My condolences to the family.
