| Camp Verde Bugle, Camp Verde, Arizona Thursday, December 01, 2015 Marilyn Manning, long-time resident of Cottonwood AZ from 1984-2009, passed away at her current home in Lakeville, MN on Nov 3 at the age of 76. From the mid 1980's until 2001 Marilyn was employed at and then retired from Yavapai County AHCCCS Community Health Services where she was a financial eligibility coordinator. She and her life partner, Walter "Brad" Bradley, also proudly owned and operated Bradmar Books in Sedona, Arizona for many years where, in addition to new and used books and magazines, they also sold Betty Selby and Aadams pottery. Marilyn also was a long time Avon representative in Cottonwood. Her love for dogs, especially Golden retrievers, brought her to raise Golden Retriever puppies that went to live with loving families in the Cottonwood and surrounding areas. She dearly loved her Golden Retrievers Quana, Raina, Nicky, Sierra, Tina and Riley. She also loved the Verde Valley area, its history and the people. Marilyn was a kind, sweet, loving woman with an independent, gentle spirit. She will be deeply missed and remembered always by her daughters, Pamela (Kim) Clifford and Paula (Colin Williams) McGranahan; grandsons, Luke (Jessica) Preiner, Joseph (Brianne) Preiner and Levi Preiner; her partner, Walter "Brad" Bradley; siblings, Nancy Molstad Jepson and Larry (Joline) Molstad; special niece, Lindsey; and other loving relatives, friends and her beloved dog, Tanner. There to greet Marilyn into Heaven are her parents, Lawrence and Mary DeMaris Molstad; son-in-law, Bob McGranahan; brother-in-law, William Jepson; nephew, Jon Molstad.
