Dear George and Family
I was saddened to hear about Marlene's death. I was a member of the same Probus Mississauga Centre Club and had many good times with Marlene and George. They were very active in our Club and personally a member of my Probus Euchre Club. Marlene was a talented woman, a super hostess and photographer. We always enjoyed our visits with them during the Christmas season with their wonderful decorations everywhere. My deepest condolences to you George and your family. I appreciate Sarah contacting me and I was able to pass on this sad news to our Club
Sincerely, Maxine Kelly

My sincerest sympathies are extended to George and the members of Marlene's family. I remember how proud she was of her grandchildren and great grandchildren and mentioned them often with love. I remember how beautifully she decorated their home at Christmas and how welcoming she was to us, her Probus friends.

RIP
Carol
