Who Was Marilyn G. Rabb?

When asked who Marilyn G. Rabb was—the words “we shall dance again” come to mind. These simple words, shared between her and my father, Michael Rabb, were the embodiment of her being—constantly hopeful, trusting, loving, caring and endlessly inspirational.

She was a person who created love and support for those who had forgotten about love and had given up on the power of love.

Lynn was a tour de force that could will change, instinctively know right and wrong, and choose what was best; she fought ferociously for those she loved and would never give up on them.

In the face of cancer, she again embodied love and selflessness. In her fight she exhibited dignity, concern, caring and rigor beyond belief. Against unbelievable odds and overwhelming situations, Lynn stood strong and continued being who she was—an amazing, honest, loving, and inspiring individual who cared for and created love and life wherever she was.

When the idea of creating a public non profit entity presented itself, naming it in her memory was more of action for the future than of the past.

To attempt to encapsulate some of her being and energy into an organization is no small task. If we can continue to act with integrity, to inspire innovation to help those in need, remain honest and truthful, create love and caring wherever we go, empower people and fight for what is good—then we will have succeeded.

I thank Lynn for her inspiration, for the past she impacted and for the future she is helping us create. Her being, energy, support and love will live forever.

Thank you for your support and interest.

With much love, respect and humility,
