Marilyn Kay Schratz Obituary
We are sad to announce that, on December 24, 2025, Marilyn Kay Schratz of Tempe, Arizona passed away. Family and friends are welcome to leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.
As we bid Marilyn farewell, let us not mourn the absence of her physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of her spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Marilyn is not truly gone, but merely transformed, her energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
