March 8, 2026

Marylu Arnold Daigle Naff, 94 of Willis, formerly of Christiansburg, passed away March 8, 2026. She was preceded in death by her parents, James and Lula Arnold; sister, Peggy A. Bearman; and first husband, Donald E. P. Daigle.

Marylu is survived by her husband, James Naff; children, Paul A. Daigle (Leigh Ann), David M. Daigle, Donna D. Worrell; grandchildren, Brandon A. Daigle (Krista), Jaryck A. Daigle (David), Brittney W. Owen (Billy); great-grandchildren, William Daigle, Aubrey Daigle. She will also be missed by her nieces and nephews, Rebecca Arvello, Lynda Schupp (Phil), Janice McEwen (Tom), Ray Daigle, Patty James (David), Cheryl Entwisle, and Michael Daigle.

Marylu attended Main Street Baptist Church and Belmont Christian Church in Christiansburg, and was active into her 80's. She loved to read, listen to classical music, do crossword puzzles, swim, bowl, and play softball. She loved all animals and never turned away a stray one of her kids brought home. Marylu never had a harsh word for anyone. She was the "cool aunt" to her Texas nieces. Marylu was pleasantly surprised to find love again with James Naff. He was her rock and her best friend.

The family would like to thank NRV Carilion Hospital Surgical Care Unit.

Graveside Services will be Friday, March 13, 2026, at 11 a.m. at Roselawn Memorial Gardens, Christiansburg, with Beaver Terry and Lynda Schupp officiating the Service.
