The Lion & The Ladybug 2 M aralyn Howell Bullion '41 entered Chapter Eternal on August 9, 2024. Maralyn graduated with a degree in English and sociology and moved to Memphis, where she worked as a copywriter and proofreader for a pharmaceutical company. She later married Jim, with whom she had six children. When the couple lived outside of Paris and in Heidelberg, Germany, they visited many parts of Europe. In 1960, the family moved back to the States and settled in Washington, D.C., where she taught English at several inner-city schools. After her husband's passing in 1991, Maralyn returned to Oxford to care for her ailing mother, and in 1998, permanently moved back. Maralyn was a dedicated member of St. Peter's Church and was an officer and longtime active member of the David Reese Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution. She worked with the Lafayette County Heritage Foundation, where she helped organize genealogical documents and was instrumental in the preservation and conversion of the Burns Belfry Church into a museum and multicultural center dedicated to local African-American history. She remained a loyal and active booster of Ole Miss and always enjoyed watching the game. Maralyn will be missed.
