The executive board of the Camas Farmer’s Market is planning a memorial to honor Marilyn Goodman this Wednesday at the market. A reception will follow at Journey Community Church, 304 N.E. Fourth Ave. Attendees are asked to wear bright colors.
Schedule of events –
3 p.m.: Photo books for Goodman’s family will be available to sign.
5:45 p.m.: Balloons can be signed for a group release.
6:15 p.m.: Brief celebration of Goodman’s life and balloon release in the middle of the market
6:45 p.m.: Reception begins at Journey Church.
In lieu of flowers or gifts, Goodman requested donations be made to the Ovarian Cancer Alliance of Oregon and Southwest Washington, Children’s Home Society in Washougal and the Camas Farmer’s Market.
“Never give up.”
Marilyn Goodman lived by that statement. The Camas resident battled ovarian cancer for 10 years, enduring several reoccurrences and experimental therapies before the disease took her life on Aug. 15.
