St. George, UT - Marilyn Louise Tucker Rawlings, 87, passed away on December 22, 2009 in St. George, UT. She was born on December 7, 1922 at Mt. Pleasant, Utah to Raymond Stephen and Grace Louise Jacobsen Tucker. Later she moved to Provo, Utah and was raised by Charles and Grace Maggie Jacobsen her grandparents. She loved them very much for the care they gave her. In 1942 Marilyn graduated from Provo High. Marilyn went to work at Dixon-Taylor-Russell and in May 1946 met the love of her life Roy S. Rawlings and they were married later that month on May 29, 1946. They had three sons, Craig, Stephen and Jeff. On Sept 10, 1983 they were sealed in the Prove temple. Marilyn loved her children and loved playing games, especially gin-rummy and spending time with them at their cabin. When their eldest son Craig choose to serve an LDS Mission, Marilyn went to work at Utah Valley Medical Center to assist with the costs. This would be one of many sacrifices for her children. She was always there to lend a hand to whatever they needed in life. Roy & Marilyn lived in Orem and Provo area until 1988 when they decided to follow the sun to Dixie. Marilyn loved doing family history, crocheting, reading, and doing puzzles, but most of all she loved finding a great purse (in every color of course!) She loved her family and enjoyed having sleepovers for the grandchildren and having Sunday dinners together. She loved to travel to Oregon and Alaska to visit her sisters.
