    Marriage
    • It appears that Marion was probably Clyde's third wife. According to Forest Lawn Memorial-Parks and Mortuaries of Los Angeles where Marion is buried, their records indicate she was married to Clyde at the time of her death in 1961.

      On 21 Jun 2011, I called 1-800-204-3131 and spoke to Forest Lawn Memorial-Parks and Mortuaries of Los Angeles, CA and spoke with Chris (Christine) looking for information regarding Marion W. (Brennen) Drollinger. Chris informed me that Marion was buried in the Meditation section, 3B/Lot119 and that she was married to Clyde Francis Drollinger at the time of her death. I asked what the Wee Kirk o' the Heather is as mentioned in Marion's newspaper obit where the services were to be held and Chris explained that is a small chapel located in the Forest Lawn cemetery.
