Marilyn (Roberts) Huey

Marilyn Roberts Huey of Waxhaw, left this earthly realm for a joyful and pain-free reunion with her late husband, Bill Huey and her beloved sons, Tommy and Bill, who had also gone before. Marilyn was born in 1925 to William Chalmers and Alma Sims Roberts. She grew up on a Lancaster County farm but moved to the Hyde Park community when her parents went to work in the cotton mills. Marilyn graduated from Lancaster High and went to work in banking; first at NCNB in Charlotte until the roof caved in (literally), and later at the Bank of Lancaster and its many successors for more than 30 years. She loved meeting and helping people as a bank teller. Her long retirement years were spent traveling, babysitting grandchildren, antiquing and collecting. The stores of Waxhaw and yard sales of several counties were her domain. Marilyn is survived by her son, Larry and wife Margaret Huey of Grapevine, Texas; grandsons, Kevin and Kyle Huey; her sister, Nell Brewer of Spartanburg, SC; her nephew, Ed Emory and wife Shannon; grandson, Brian Huey and great-granddaughters Brittany and Haley and so many friends and neighbors, whom she dearly loved. The family thanks Joy Dearmore, Jeanne Pritt, Kristin at Union County Hospice and the staff at Brookdale Union Park for their loving care. Funeral services will be held Tuesday, March 27, 2018 at 2:00 PM at Tirzah Presbyterian Church, followed by burial in the church cemetery. The family will visit with friends and relatives Monday, March 26, 2018 from 6:00 - 8:00 PM in Gordon Funeral Service, 1904 Lancaster Avenue, Monroe, NC. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Tirzah Presbyterian Church, 7507 Tirzah Church Road, Waxhaw, NC 28173.
