Thanks to Mom, Brenda, Auntie Joan and to everyone who visited Auntie in her final days. She played a huge part in making me who I am today. Her passions became mine as we spent several hours growing up watching and enjoying curling, Elvis, playing crib, different foods and our Beloved Blue Bombers to only mention a few. Attending the Grey Cup with her is one of my all time fondest memories. She was always friendly, strong and happy and she meant the world to my family and myself. I have been truly blessed to have been allowed to be apart of her great life. I love you and will miss you until we are together once again. - Posted by: Steve Wilchuk (Nephew) on: Mar 23, 2014

My heart goes out to you, Bob, on the loss of your dear Marlene. And to the family,especially Edna, who has now lost her last sibling. I have only my sister left as well, and I have thought of you, Edna, so often in the past months, and especially in the last weeks. I was unable to come and see her, but she was in my prayers every day, as were all of you. The Blue Bombers have lost one of their greatest fans. We will all miss you dearly, Marlene. Rest in Peace. Love always, Doreen & family. - Posted by: Doreen Marks (Extended family member & friend) on: Mar 23, 2014

To Marlene's Family: Many, many great memories of so long ago. We were curling buddies in the 60s and 70s and worked together at Investors. Shared our love of country music - especially Merle. Prayers and thoughts are with you. - Posted by: Michele Mickel (Palmer) (Friend) on: Mar 22, 2014
