Marilyn S. Steen

Marilyn Stoddard Steen, 76, of Gray Court, SC, widow of Fred W. Steen, Jr., passed away on Sunday, February 2, 2025. Born in Laurens, SC, she was a daughter of the late Shaw and Sara Stoddard.

Marilyn was genuine, down-to-earth, and fun. She loved all her nieces and nephews, as if they were her own children and they loved her-pulling her onto the dance floor to dance at her nieces wedding.

She was kind and generous, always there for her sister, Nancy, when she needed her. She loved her brother, Richard, always stopping by to visit when she was in Greenville. She never met a stranger, always smiling and waving as they went by. She was loved by all her family and many friends who will miss her presence. Rest in peace, sweet Marilyn.

Marilyn is survived by two siblings, Nancy Culbertson and Richard Stoddard (Marianne); four nieces and nephews, Wanda Kelley (Mark), Joseph Stoddard, Deanne Rogers, and Daniel Rogers; and four great nieces and nephews, Alexis Carter, Grant Kelley, Brett Kelley, and Susanna Vaughan.

In addition to her husband and parents, she was preceded in death by a sister, Mary Wanda Stoddard; a niece, Starla Hibbard; and brother-in-law, Gary Culbertson.

The Funeral Service will be held on Saturday February 8, 2025 at 3:00 pm at Owings Methodist Church; 4766 N Old Laurens Rd, Gray Court, SC 29645. The family will receive friends starting at 2:00 pm.

Interment will follow in Owings Presbyterian Church Cemetery.
