Marilyn S. McIntyre

January 23, 1952 - July 28, 2017

Our beloved wife, mother, sister, aunt and friend left us on July 28,  2017 and has joined her mother, Peggy; father, John; and son, Calvin John (CJ) and is now soaring with the pelicans.

She was born in Boise, Idaho on January 23, 1952 and was the oldest of 5 girls. She was the prom queen and member of the marching squad in the last graduating class of St. Mary's of the Wasatch in 1970.

Marilyn was a dedicated employee at Backman Title and definitely the best dressed! Her favorite things included the Denver Broncos, the Eastern Idaho State Fair, the high limit pit at the Rainbow Casino in Wendover, Nevada, camping at Tanners Flat, Bear Lake and the beach in Mazatlan.

She leaves behind her husband, Scott Brown (Little Lovie); sisters Melissa McIntyre, Julie Dupuis (Philip), Cathy McIntyre (Charlie) and Chris McIntyre (Ray); her many children Lexxie, Chandler, Justin, Jennifer, and Casey; her special nieces and nephews Johnny, Sarah, Dana, Clay, Jacob, Alex, and Ashton; and her several great nieces and nephews.

A special thanks to the wonderful staff at the Huntsman Cancer Institute clinic 1A, and the hospice staff at CNS Nursing Services for their compassionate care for Marilyn.

A celebration of her life will be held on Thursday, August 3, 2017 from 6:00 – 8:00 PM at Starks Funeral Parlor, 3651 South 900 East, Salt Lake City. Guests are encouraged to use the complimentary valet parking on the north side of the building. 

Sister, next time we go to Wendover, we are counting on you to help us hit the triple, triple, triple.

In Loving Memory

Dear Melissa, Julie, Cathy, Chris, Scott & Family - What a difference Marilyn made in all of our lives! Many fun times were spent during our growing up years from 1962-present enjoying life & figuring out meaning, learning to appreciate music by spending time at McIntyres house full of girls (Mates had house full of boys). My stories are an intricate part of my life - I'll miss you dearly, Marilens!! Love and Peace my dear best friend! Char

Melissa, I was so sorry to see this obituary today. I haven't seen Marilyn in years from back when we bowled at All Star, but I remember her as your sister and I know you loved her a lot. She was a lot of fun to be around and I wish I had more memories. I'm sorry for your loss. Love, Mary

Melissa and Family, I am sorry for your loss. Marilyn was such a fun and loving person. Her smile was amazing, and she always had that sparkle in her eyes. You never knew what she was going to do next!!! She was the life of the party on the bus going to games!!! She made those trips memorable!!! God Bless you all, Love, Cherie

Our love for Mar has never faded. Time and distance have seperated us in body, but in spirit she will always be my "Sister". I am sure that the reunion with CJ was a celebration to behold. My husband, my girls and I will forever treasure the wonderful memories we have. Love and prayers to all of you!

To Melissa, Julie, Cathy and Chris, the passing of Marilyn has left a big void in our heats and souls.. In the days to come we will band together to help all of us to deal with this, it will be day by day thing to do. I want to thank everyone who attended The celebration of Life for Marilyn. It was great to see everyone there. I want to thank Shayneh and Jason Starks and their staff at the Starks Funeral Parlor for the compassion, care, and thoughtfulness in taking care of Marilyn. I watch the tribute video slideshow of Marilyn every night and cry. I wake up every morning thinking of her. I love her very much and I miss her more than I would ever know.
