"I first met Marilyn in 1987 when she was the nursing supervisor at Wahiawa General Hospital.  She stood out as a knowledgeable leader, effective at getting things done, articulate, ethical, and responsive.  At the same time, she was always diplomatic and worked exceptionally well with others. It is these same characteristics that also made her such an effective legislator.  We need her back in the House of Representatives."

— Sheryl P. Gardner, M.D., retired Mililani gynecologist, Mililani resident

"Thank you for the many years of support you have provided to the Mililani High School Athletic Program.  You played an instrumental role in the design and construction of the synthetic turf field at the John Kauinana Stadium.  Our Boys Varsity Soccer Team directly benefited from your efforts.

Your work in the community has been outstanding!  Thank you for everything that you do for Mililani."

— Jeff Yamamoto, Mililani High School Boys Soccer, Head Coach
