I had the pleasure to work with Marion at Exeter Public School when Marion was the secretary in the office. It was always nice to see Marion and always with a smile. She kept a little glass jar of peppermints on her desk and often offered one when someone walked by.
I extend my sincere sympathy to her family. Cherish your memories!

Marion and I worked together at Exeter P.S.. With an enrolment of over 500 students at that time, it was a busy office and Marion ran it like clockwork and always with a smile. I am grateful that I had a good visit with her this summer during our Lunch Bunch get together. She will be missed.

Condolence from Ray and Judy Mills on November 27th, 2024 12:34 PM

Nancy, Barb, Sandra, Kerri and families;
We are so saddened to hear of Marion’s passing. She was such a delight to know. Her smile filled any room. In the days she worked at EPS I witnessed many times where she handled the questions of 4 people at once, while running off pages for an assignment and taking information on the phone. And all with a smile. She was amazing! She helped us out often at church with her baking and her hard work, contributing where needed. We were so blessed to have known her. Thinking of you and the family and praying for you. God Bless.

Condolence from Sandi Bergmann on November 27th, 2024 1:18 PM

Marion was my rock during our time together at Exeter Public School. No matter how chaotic, how emotional draining my job was, Marion was there to support and often solve the problem. During our retirement years we often had a giggle about our memories. Marion will always be in my thoughts as a role model of gracious living. My condolences to all.

Condolence from Joyce Black on November 27th, 2024 1:59 PM

Sincere condolences to all of Marion’s family. Marion was a pleasure to get to know at Exeter Public School. She was the first person that you saw upon entering the school. Marion multitasked well and ran the school office with such ease; always smiling and looking after the needs of others. Marion was always kind and remained calm in any situation.

After Marion’s retirement, I enjoyed seeing her again from time to time. She always had the same smile on her face and was positive as ever.

Hold your memories close. ♥️

Condolence from Micheal Bushby on November 28th, 2024 8:09 AM

I was deeply saddened with the news of Marion’s passing. My sincere condolences to Barb, Sandra, Nancy and all the family and grandchildren.

Marion was truly a great person and was always very kind to me for which I will be forever grateful. Marion will be remembered to me as a true, hard working and sincere person who I always admired. My memories of her will be of someone who enjoyed the simple and wonderful things in life like appreciating a nice sunny day, enjoying a walk, or just sitting to watch the grandkids playing outside on a Sunday afternoon after dinner. A truly beautiful soul, may she rest in peace.

Condolence from Michael Soldan on November 28th, 2024 10:51 AM

I am sorry to learn of Marion’s passing. For my years at EPS , Marion was the go to person for anything you needed. She would confide in me and pass on information she thought I needed to know. Her desk would be piled high with work to be done , yet , she would stop what she was doing to help me even if it meant setting aside what she was doing. Marion was a wonderful secretary and a wonderful friend. Sometimes I would go into the office just to chat with her , always a warm and friendly conversation. My condolences to the family , a wonderful person , a life well lived .

Condolence from Tracey and Kevin on November 28th, 2024 10:57 AM

My deepest sympathy on the passing of Marion as it was her and Don that let me set up my Hairdressing shop in the other half of Don;s barbershop in Hensall and I spent many years of hairdressing Hensall because of them.

Condolence from Sandra Norris on November 29th, 2024 12:13 PM

To Marion’s family.
It is not often that someone can leave such fond memories to so many people. Marion was one of a kind. She could multi-task like the best of them…handling phone calls, the idiosyncrasies of staff, and, best of all, when it was or was not a good time to talk to the boss.
I was fortunate enough to work with Marion at both Usborne Central, and Exeter Public. We shared good and not so good times together.
We have lost one of the good ones. She will be missed.

Condolence from Bob and Helen Coates on November 29th, 2024 4:42 PM
