Obituary
Age 76, passed away on February 4, 2022, at Borgess Hospital. She was born in Plainwell, MI, on August 18, 1945, the daughter of the late Brace and Eleanor (Abbey) Duncan. Marilyn was a loving wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She had a gentle nature and was a joy to know. Marilyn worked hard to provide a happy home where all were made to feel welcome. She retired as an assistant manager of Walgreens after twenty-five years. When not working she enjoyed crocheting, crafting and spending time with friends and family. Her warm smile and laughter will be missed by all who loved her. On March 3, 1967, she married Andrew L. Orr who survives. She is also survived by four children, Kellie Ruimveld, Michelle (Gary) Johns, Rex Orr and Randy (Rachel) Orr; seven grandchildren, William (Lynnzi Trease) Ruimveld, Brent (Aleisha) Ruimveld, Gabrielle Clark, Taylor Johns, Joshua, Courtney and Kyle Orr; four great-grandchildren; two siblings, Jim Duncan and Sue Fulton; many nieces, nephews and friends. She was also preceded in passing by two siblings, Ken Duncan and Lee Klutts.

I have been friends with Randy and Rex since the early 1980’s. Meet their mother in Melbourne,Fl. Mrs Orr was a hard working mother and loving mother. She loved her family dearly. May the Heavenly Father pour His Grace, Love and Comfort. Over the Orr family in the days, weeks and months ahead. May God guide them and direct them with His eternal Love.
Mrs. Orr always made me feel welcome in her home, and her family, when Michelle and I became friends in the late 1970’s! I will always remember her smile and her laugh. She had a fierce love for life and for her family! May God comfort you all in this time of loss. I love you all!
