The death date listed above is disputed. My father did the funeral for Dr. Marlatt in the Winchester Presbyterian Church. Since my father left that church circa 1972, I believe Dr. Marlatt must have died earlier, perhaps as early as 1969. I will research this and edit based on what I am able to find. |
