Marilyn K. Sommer Obituary

We are sad to announce that, on January 6, 2026 we had to say goodbye to Marilyn K. Sommer of New Bremen, Ohio. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Marilyn K. Sommer to show support.

As we bid farewell to this cherished soul, solace is taken in the memories held dear — the laughter shared, the wisdom imparted, the moments of quiet reflection in their presence. Though Marilyn may no longer walk among us, her spirit lives on in the echoes of her kindness, the warmth of her embrace, and the light of her enduring love.

She was predeceased by: her parents, C. Irvin Swallow and Gertrude Swallow (Boomershine) of Beamsville; her daughter Theresa McElwee (Jim) of Zanesville, OH; and her siblings, Harold Swallow and Juanita Garrett.

She is survived by: her children, Alan Sommer (Christy) of Indian Trail, NC, Rhonda Gill (Barry) of New Bremen and David Sommer of Botkins, OH. She is also survived by 10 grandchildren and by 19 great-grandchildren.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests any memorial gifts be made to one of her two favorite charities-Agape in St. Marys or SART: Cat Adoption & Rescue, also in St. Marys.
