  16. I am extremely saddened to learn of the passing of dear kind Marion.
    When I moved from Melbourne to the W.J Christie Centre, as a young teacher in the early 1980’s, Marion was a mentor to me, with her compassion and extreme wisdom.
    I am also upset to hear that her children have also passed away.
    May they all Rest In Peace eternally.
