A wonderfully passionate Wife, Mother and Grandmother, Marion passed away peacefully, after receiving excellent care at Leicester Royal Infirmary.
Full of vibrancy and humour to match, Grandma had an enriching life and made all those around her smile, especially her husband of nearly 71 years, Eddie.
She conquered many fears in her time, her biggest in order to travel to Singapore with my Grandad during the 1950s (boat vs airplane for travel) .
Other fears faced and conquered include: Seeing The Osmonds live with my mum, in exchange for my mum seeing Des O' Connor with her.
This, and raising two Leeds United supporters, Karen and Paul, despite being an avid Leicester City Football club member for numerous years of her life.
In her later years, my Grandma would rarely be seen without some chocolate close by, namely Maltesars and she could 'never say no' to a cheeky chocolate or 4.
We have so many wonderful memories to cherish, of such a wonderful woman.
