Marlene was a wonderful person, who was willing to pitch in and help whenever called upon. She was my installing Worthy Matron in Fort Garry and I appreciated everything she did for me. I will miss her a lot. God must be smiling because he has one of his angels back in the fold. - Posted by: Sandra Ebata (Friend) on: Jan 11, 2005
