Marilyn A. Lipke — Austin
Marilyn A. Lipke, 62, of Austin, died at her home Friday, Dec. 21, 2012.
Marilyn was born Oct. 20, 1950, in Minneapolis, to Helmuth and Lorraine Lipke.
Marilyn was a hard worker with Cedar Valley Services where she was most recently working on the pepperoni contract. She enjoyed the staff and her housemates at Elmwood. Marilyn was known to go from being cantankerous to quickly being the life of the party. She loved coffee and loved to color. Her favorite time of the year was from her birthday to Christmas as she enjoyed all of the holidays in between. Marilyn seemed to have a song for every occasion including a coffee break song and "Happy Toes" for when she was happy. She also loved polka especially "In Heaven There is No Beer".
She is survived by her housemates and co-workers.
Funeral services will be held at 1 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 29, at the Clasen-Jordan Mortuary Chapel, with the Reverend Glenn Monson officiating. Interment will be at Oakwood Cemetery.
Visitation will be held Friday from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. at Clasen-Jordan Mortuary and on Saturday for one hour before the service.
