My deepest sympathies to all the family. Marion was truly a lovely aunty all my life. Always attentive and inquisitive about what I was up to. We shall miss her spirit from this world! May she and John live together in heaven. I´ll be thinking of you during the Requiem Mass. RIP dear Marion.
Love, Catherine

Dearest Marion, my favourite aunty, with the comfort and support when I needed that someone to turn to. Wonderful memories ... the holidays in Akaroa and Dunedin ... you are now with God and your beloved John. Rest in peace.
