Marilyn Marie Schiro, 58, of Springfield, MO, passed away May 27, 2020. She was born March 11, 1962, in Louisiana, to William and Fanny Smith. She was the third child of eleven amazing children: Junior, Johnnie, Joseph, Sammy, Linda, Larine, Elaine, Daniel, Bryant and Michael. She was the smallest but the feistiest.

She loved royal blue, black and white. She was a plant lover and loved playing pool, chess and dominoes. She was welcoming to friends and foes and was always smiling. She loved to see everyone happy.

She has seven wonderful children, Oleathia, Aaron, Timothy, Krista, Marcus, Evony, and Christopher; 21 grandchildren and one on the way. That she loved very much.

She was surrounded by her children as she went home to rest. She was at peace and was able to hear the voices of all her children, sisters and brothers as they called to say they loved her so much. Her children prayed the Lord's Prayer, played her favorite songs and read loving scripture.

Her seven children meant perfection and allowed Marilyn to rest in peace she has fought her battle and won. As she rests please let it be in peace and celebrate her life. And it's never goodbye it's see you later.
