Marilyn was born in Madison, Wisconsin on November 6th, 1930 where she graduated from East Madison High School and met the love of her life, Harold Dickey. They were married on January 15th, 1949, in Madison, Wisconsin. Marilyn was employed by the State of Wisconsin early in their marriage and took great joy in her role of wife, mother, homemaker and community volunteer while raising their four children. Marilyn accompanied Hal on various adventures and work related travels during Hal's Navy career. Her favorite being several trips to the pink sand beaches of Bermuda.
Marilyn was instrumental in beginning the Cedar Valley workshop in Austin, Minnesota, as well as serving on numerous boards and committees including but not limited to Cedar Valley Services, Mrs. Jaycees, Eastern Star, Lutheran Church circles and the YMCA. Marilyn was a stranger to no one and made friends wherever she went. She was slow to anger and quick to forgive. Her quick smile and selfless, joyous heart will be greatly missed by all who knew her. Anything Marilyn had she happily shared with others, including the Peanut Brittle recipe which has made her husband Hal's annual peanut brittle production famous and loved by many for over thirty-five years.
