Marilyn Monroe Elliott

Though the clouds may hang over  there will be a brighter day in that land, they call heaven God shall wipe all tears away…

As the Angelic Host rejoices with the arrival of another anointed woman of God, those who remain to endure have heavy hearts and indescribable sadness as a result of this tremendous loss. Ms. Marilyn Monroe Elliott gently laid her head in the Master’s arms and went to sleep in Paradise on Wednesday, June 10, 2026. 

Precious moments have been set aside to spend intimate time while reflecting on fonder memories. Services to celebrate the life and legacy of this virtuous woman of God will be held on Saturday, June 20, 2026 at 2pm in the sanctuary of First Baptist Missionary Church with Dr. Kera L. Johnson, Eulogist.  A Viewing and Visitation will take place on Friday, June 19, 2026 from 5pm-7pm at Horton’s Funeral Home and Cremations. During this time, family and friends can gather and remember better days with Ms. Elliott while relying on their faith to get them through this difficult time.

Following the formalities in the sanctuary, Ms. Elliott’s delicate temple along with her adored family, will be escorted to Cedarwood Cemetery for Interment Rites. 

Guests are being received at 309 Meads Loop Hertford, NC 27944 where they will also assemble in preparation for the Prestigious Horton Ebony Motorcade.

Although her heartbroken family will have to depart, leaving her earthen vessel in this designated place, all that knew Ms. Elliott can rest knowing that she is now apart of the glorious number that John The Revelator spoke of in the final book in the Bible. John said he looked and saw a Great number, that no man could number and The Lord informed him, that those were the saints that had come up through hard trials and tribulations and had washed their Robes In the blood of the Lamb. 

The Compassionate Professionals at Horton Funeral Home and Cremations are humbled to be a part of this precious family and serve them with uncompromising dignity and love during this difficult time. 

Goodnight “Marilyn”...Rest Well, we will see you in the morning.
