Marilyn Susan Hall

Marilyn Susan (Augustin) Hall passed away peacefully surrounded by all her children and her loving husband of 50 years, Warren, on December 22, 2025.

Marilyn Augustin was born on July 8, 1952 in Grand Forks, ND to Milton and Esther (Schulz) Augustin. She was baptized at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Crystal, ND on August 17, 1952. She was later confirmed at St. John’s on June 19, 1966. Marilyn’s faith was lifelong and in her last days with us her trust in Jesus brought her peace.

Marilyn graduated from Valley High School in 1970. After high school she began nursing studies at the University of North Dakota. She was an active member of Delta Zeta where she made many life-long friends. She graduated from UND in 1974 with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing.

On January 4, 1975, Marilyn married Warren Hall. They made their home in Hoople and celebrated 50 years of marriage this year. They worked on many house projects together. Marilyn helped Warren on the farm by driving potato truck, picking up parts, and giving rides between fields. Warren and Marilyn were blessed with five children and Marilyn was a diligent and caring mother to them.

Marilyn’s true calling was one of faithful service to others. As a nurse, she cared for many patients throughout her career. As a mother, she worked tirelessly to support all of her children’s diverse interests. She volunteered at church, school activities, and also as a 4-H leader.

She had many hobbies and interests. She loved making quilts and appliques, and most items were given as gifts or donations. She also loved flower gardening and baking. Her cookies were legendary among her children and their friends. She enjoyed snowmobiling with her family and especially with Warren. Marilyn started riding snowmobile at the beginning of her marriage to Warren and they enjoyed many adventures including their last snowmobiling trip in the winter of 2025.

Marilyn is survived by her husband, Warren; her five children, Julie (Eric) Hall-den Boer, Sarah Hall, Kevin (Amy) Hall, Alicia (Brian) Harstad, Laura (Jonathan) Rieger; seven grandchildren, William, Margret, Jonah, Axel, Violet, Ivan, and Barrett; her siblings, Lee (Lesley) Augustin, and Jane (Dick) Horner. Marilyn is also survived by many nieces, nephews, cousins, friends, and all who were touched by her caring and love.
