Rob and Inez Flinn gave birth to Marilyn on April 11th, 1948. The Flinns and their parents before them were members of All Saints Episcopal Church in Mobile, AL. Marilyn was baptized into that church as a baby, then as a adult served two terms as Senior Warden of the Vestry. 

Professionally, Marilyn was a social worker. She worked 25 years for the department of Human Resources in Montgomery, AL. She developed a policy for the protection of adults who were abused, neglected or exploited. She also supervised a unit of social workers who investigated such cases. After she retired from Human Resources, she was employed with Villa Hope Adoption Agency. In that role, she did home studies and counseling for families applying to adopt a child. Marilyn also escorted and supervised a group of adoptive parents overseas to China, who wished to adopt children.
