Obituary of Marilyn M. McAuliffe
Marilyn McAuliffe, 91. (1932-2023)
Marilyn McAuliffe, loving mother and wife, passed away peacefully at home on August 20, 2023,
in Madison Heights, MI.
Marilyn grew up with three brothers and three sisters whom she remained close to throughout
her life. In 1952 she married Michael McAuliffe to begin a life of love, fun and many, many
gatherings of family and friends. They would spend a lifetime together building a business,
traveling and raising their seven children. We know Marilyn and Mike are now playing their best
round of golf together.
Marilyn is survived by her seven children: Deb (Mike) Goloback, Diane (Dick) Doney, Michael
(Sue) McAuliffe, Steve (Cyndi) McAuliffe, Jim (Ann Marie) McAuliffe, Matt (Laurie) McAuliffe, and
Kristi (Son Tran) McAuliffe; 17 grandchildren and 7 great-grandchildren.
A celebration of Marilyn's life will be held at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to a charity of one's choice in
Marilyn's name. Although she’s left ‘on a jet plane’, her memory will remain with us.
Marilyn will be greatly missed.
