Marjorie was a special friend of our family in Eketahuna and later in Palmerston North for many years. Very much loved for her wisdom and her caring.

Our condolences to the family. We are one of the refugee families Marjorie and Leo took in back in the late 80s. They helped us adjust to our new life. Even though we weren´t related, Marjorie and Leo were the best grandparents I ever had.
