Marilyn was born October 20, 1943 in Arlington to Arthur and Norma (Dunklau) Wittmann. She married Richard Kohl on September 15, 1963 at St. Paul's Lutheran Church in Arlington. Marilyn was a member of Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Fremont. Marilyn loved family, camping with Dick, working in her flower beds and enjoying the outdoors. They traveled and attended all family events. She was an amazing mother, grandma and great grandma! The matriarch of the Kohl family was the glue of our family and will be greatly missed. She was surrounded by love until the very end. We know she is in heaven and joined by family until we meet again.

Omaha, NE Saturday, October 5, 2024 To Dennis and all of Marilyn's famly: Coming from the small town of Arlington and going to St. Paul's Lutheran School, you get to know their families pretty well. Although we were only two months apart in age, Marilyn was a year behind in school. (funny how dates make you wait a year)! After graduation, I would see her at various reunions - but lives take us in different directions after that. May God bless all of you in the upcoming days, months, and years as her loss will always be felt. My deepest sympathy to all of you. DoniDel & Sandy Sukstorf

Fremont, NE Tuesday, October 1, 2024 To the family of Marilyn Kohl:I’m very sorry to hear about your mom’s passing. I have nothing but great memories of your mom and your dad. I think I was in the fourth grade when we moved next door, and I’ve been out of school now about 50 years! So they were both a part of my growing up. Now both of our parents are gone! Once again, my sympathy to all of your families. Todd
