Marilyn J. McKelvey, age 72 years of Rose City, our proud, caring, and loving wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend went home to be with the Lord on Saturday, April 23, 2016. Marilyn was born in Taylor Township on May 18, 1943, the daughter of the late Albert and Alma (Dickelman) Boik. While at a drive-in in Wyandotte, Marilyn met her soulmate and best friend, Harry "Bill" McKelvey. They dated, fell in love, and were united in marriage on September 4, 1965. Marilyn started her career as a biller and worked her way to the position of Office Manager for Jack Auffenberg's dealerships. She loved playing all types of card games, and held a special spot in her heart for Las Vegas. Marilyn raised three boys. Four if you include her husband who survives, Harry "Bill" McKelvey, Sr. sometimes affectionately known as "Sweet Willie." She'll be deeply missed, but lovingly remembered by her sons: Harry (Julie) McKelvey, Jr., Brian (Rebecca) McKelvey, Robert (Roy Arteta) McKelvey; grandchildren, Andrew and Conner McKelvey; Neveah Ellsworth, Mariyonna Walker; siblings, Mel (Mae) Boik, Dale (Phil) Boik, and Donna Jordan. In addition to her parents, Marilyn was welcomed home to heaven by her brother, Elton Boik, and brother-in-law, Curt Jordan. Private arrangements have been entrusted to the care of Skorupski Family Funeral Home & Cremation Services, 955 N. Pine Rd., Hampton Twp.
