Honoring Marilyn Laigo Senour

On Feb 6, 2006 we lost a dearly loved member of our community. Marilyn will be deeply missed and her contributions and healing, supportive spirit will not be forgotten.

Marilyn was a Deacon Candidate for the Episcopal Diocese of Olympia, served on committees for racial understanding for the local diocese, and provided anti-racism/diversity trainings within her faith community.

Marilyn’s work in the community included: Filipino American National Historical Society (FANHS), United Indians of All Tribes, Seattle Indian Services, North Seattle Youth Services, Filipino-American Civic Employees of Seattle (FACES). 

Marilyn served 30+ years in public service with the City of Seattle, most recently at Seattle's Department of Transportation; she also served on the city-wide Race and Social Justice Initiative (RSJI) Core Team. We love you Marilyn, we miss you, we'll never forget you.

Just as the wind blows
The sun shines everyday
The snow melts on the ground
Life is ever so mystical

  --  r  s  j  i  -- 

You came, you stayed, 
  Laughed and celebrated
  Life with us
And then you bid goodbye

  --  r  s  j  i  --

Gone but not forgotten,
You'll always be
  in our hearts
Your legacy will remain
And the memory
  lingers on

Time passes. 
  It is time...
