Marilyn J. Monte, a lifelong resident of Ionia, Michigan, died on Friday, Sept. 25,

Michigan, the daughter of George and Helen (Felton) Harolow.  She was a proud

families, including her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Grand Rapids, Michigan; one daughter, Melissa (Ron) Byram of Kokomo, Indiana; five
