Marlynn was raised in the Philippines and as a teenager the family moved to the United States.  The daughter of an Airman, she lived throughout the United States until the family settled in Maine.  Marlynn graduated from Lee Academy, Class of 1985, and from Washington County Community College with a degree in Business Administration.  She worked various jobs until starting her career with the papermill in Baileyville, working in the office for 21 years.  In 1989, she married her high school sweetheart, Robert Beach.  Marlynn returned to Washington County Community College and graduated with a degree in Medical Assistant and worked as an insurance processor and payable clerk for Health Access in Lincoln until her retirement.  For the last three years, Marlynn and Robert were faithful members of the Brookton Pentecostal Church.

Marlynn loved the outdoors and living in northern Washington County, Maine.  She enjoyed gardening, going for rides on their pontoon boat, mowing the lawn, cooking, decorating, and staying up to date with the latest fashion trends.  Family was most important to Marlynn.  Her most precious times were being a “Lola” to her two grandchildren, Gracelynn and Gordon.
