Marilyn K. LePore, of Washington, passed away Friday, December 1, 2023, three days following her 81st birthday. She was born in Los Angeles, California to the late Carl Richard Knowles and Mary Helen Stephenson Knowles. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Michael Joseph LePore. Marilyn devoted more than 20 years to Wills Memorial Hospital as a medical records administrator. When she wasn’t working, Marilyn found immense joy in gardening and with her beloved pets- even her koi fish. Known for her sweet disposition, no one met Marilyn that did not immediately become her friend. She is survived by her daughter, Michele Roy of Evans; and the apples of her eye, her two grandchildren, Chloe Helen Roy and Owen Michael Roy, both of Evans. Marilyn loved animals.
