England. Born in Royton, England in 1935, the girl in blue (Luton
Girls Choir) married the man in red (Irish Guards Band) in 1953 and
started a wonderful life in Canada that same year. While in Toronto
(1953-1969), Marion sang with the Palmer Singers and St. Clement's
Anglican Church Choir. Marion was an avid volunteer in her community
for her entire life, serving the Girl Guides of Canada, the National
Arts Centre Orchestra Association, St. Matthias Church, The Ottawa
Regional Cancer Clinic and was co-founder with her husband, Bob,
of the Rideau Lakes Cycle Tour. Marion's many Friends will miss
her on the golf course, at the bridge table, at the book club
and at her dinner table where she loved to entertain. Marion's
compassion and laughter will be greatly missed by every life
she touched. Enormous thanks and appreciation to the entire oncology
team at the Ottawa Regional Cancer clinic, but especially to
Dr. Stan GERTLER and Candace
QUINN for their excellent care over
the last 13 years. Special thanks also to Doctor

Church, 555 Parkdale Avenue, Ottawa on Saturday, October 27th
at 11 a.m. Reception to follow in the church hall. In lieu of
flowers, donations to either the Ottawa Regional Cancer Clinic
or the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation-Ontario Chapter would
be appreciated.
