Marilyn Farquharson

January 6, 1952 – January 8, 2021

Marilyn Farquharson, age 69, of Waterbury, CT, passed away at Midstate Medical Center in Meriden, CT.  Marilyn was born in West Hartford, CT on January 6, 1952.  She was adopted at a very young age by the late William & Judith Ruscitto, who raised and adored her dearly.

Marilyn cherished her family deeply, loving her children and grandchildren with a passion.  Marilyn was known to love everyone as family; she was a Mom and Nonne to many.  She loved listening to Barry Manilow, watching Hallmark movies, spending time at Felicia's, visiting Gloucester and Rockport, and spending time with her grandchildren who were her pride and joy.  She spent 32 years married to her best friend Scott. 

She was known as a fighter and a pillar of strength to her family and friends. Her nurturing and caring instincts made her a wonderful mother, wife, Nonne, Aunt, and friend.  People will always remember her for her bright red hair and infectious laugh.  Marilyn will be deeply missed by all who were fortunate enough to have known her.

Special thanks to all the staff at Midstate Medical Center ICU.

There will not be any services, as per her wishes. In lieu of flowers, please consider making an online donation to St. Jude's Children Hospital in her memory.
