It is with profound sadness that the family of Marilyn Wendy McMillan of Wellington, New Zealand, shares the news of her peaceful passing at home. After a long period of declining health, Marilyn passed away surrounded by the love and care of those closest to her. While her family is deeply grieving, they also find comfort in knowing that she is now free from pain and resting peacefully in the presence of the Lord she loved so faithfully.
Marilyn will be remembered for her quiet strength, steadfast faith and the genuine Christian example she shared throughout her life. Her faith was not simply something she spoke about; it was reflected in the way she lived, cared for others and faced life’s challenges with grace and courage. To her family and friends, her devotion and character provided an enduring example of love, compassion and perseverance.
Her passing leaves a profound emptiness for those who knew and loved her. Yet alongside the sorrow are countless memories of a woman whose life made a meaningful difference to the people around her. The lessons she shared, the kindness she demonstrated and the values she lived by will continue through the family and friends she leaves behind.
The family’s message reflects both heartbreak and gratitude: heartbreak at losing a beloved mother and loved one, and gratitude for the years, memories and blessings Marilyn brought into their lives. Her journey may have come to an end, but the influence of her love and faith will remain.
We extend our deepest condolences to Marilyn’s family, including Ross McMillan, James McMillan and all their loved ones, as they navigate this difficult period of grief. May they find strength in one another and comfort in the precious memories they shared with Marilyn.
Marilyn’s life stands as a beautiful tribute to faith, family and quiet strength. May her memory continue to inspire those who knew her, and may she rest peacefully in the presence of the Lord she faithfully loved.
