Marilyn Mapes Yeutter

August 1st, 1935 – August 22, 2024


Please see Marilyn's obituary, below.


It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, Marilyn Mapes Yeutter, who left us on August 22nd having just celebrated her 89th Birthday.


Marilyn was born August 1, 1935 to Daniel and Florence Mapes from West Caldwell, New Jersey. She graduated from Caldwell High School in 1953 and Pembroke College in Brown University in 1957. She married her college sweetheart Bruce on February 1, 1958 and lived and raised their three children in Montclair, before spending her later years back in her childhood home in Caldwell.


Marilyn is survived by her loving husband Bruce D. Yeutter, her three daughters; Diane Rothberg (James Dugan), Susanne Raymond (William Raymond) and Stacey Ross (Hunter Ross), her grandchildren; Justin Rothberg (Kristin Rothberg), Brandon Rothberg, Anna Raymond Smith (Luke Smith), Caroline Raymond, Schuyler Ross, Kailey Ross, Carson Ross, and a great-granddaughter, Charlotte Rothberg.


Marilyn was a member of the Union Congregational Church where she helped steer the committee to rebuild after a devastating fire. She was a member of the Montclair Garden Club, Bradford Bath & Tennis Club for 60 years and Montclair Golf Club. She had a life-long passion for sports: she and Bruce traveled near and far to attend Brown University football, soccer, and ultimately watch daughter Diane swim for their alma mater Brown. She loved playing and watching tennis and golf. As a grandmother, she was a devoted fan on the sidelines of countless soccer and lacrosse games and swimming meets.


Marilyn loved the beach and the Outer Banks of NC where her extended family gathered every August to create beautiful memories for over 40 years. She enjoyed collecting sea shells and walking the beach with her children and grandchildren. The family was able to enjoy one last celebration together this August.


Services: The visitation will be held at the Paul Ippolito-Dancy Funeral Home in Caldwell, NJ on Wednesday the 28th from 6 to 8 pm. The funeral service will be on Thursday the 29th at 11:30 am at Union Congregational Church in Upper Montclair. We will have a repast immediately following the funeral at the church. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation in her memory to The Garden Club of Montclair or the American Heart Association
