Condolences

The family of Marilyn Katherine Kleist Rahman has received the following condolences.

Dear Anne and family,


I would like to express our sympathy to all of you at this sad time. I used to run into your mother once in awhile and we would have a nice chat, but I have not seen her for quite a few years now. She had a lot of sorrow in her life and I hope she has found peace. I think she would like the nice picture you posted with her obituary.  God bless you all!

Hi Anne  I am so sorry to hear of your mother's passing.  We first met in May of 1976 when I showed her some homes and helped her move to a different home. Over the years I was pleased to have her contact me and assisted in her 2 New homes she had built and moved to them. I always enjoyed Marilyn's stern approach to life and it's challenges and we shared a lot of idea's and memories about life and the world. The one thing in common we shared on a sad note was both of us losing son's at a young age around the same time period which is still my biggest hurt in life and remained her's also.   May God bless her and grant her eternal life.    Your friend   Raymond  Neis of Property Brokers of MN  Please call if you would like to visit more. 507-261-4331

I worked with Marilyn and Richard in the biochemistry department of Mayo Clinic many years ago when we were all so young. So many memories of those days! Later when I worked in banking, Marilyn was one of my clients. I was so saddened to learn of her passing. I love the photo that you chose - it was just as I remember her!  My condolences to her family.
