  3. Marnie was a great friend and helped me through my early days in Melbourne … even let me drive her car back to Camperdown one time( with her ) …Her Scooter riding was a unique feature in the sixties and I got into trouble dropping it while I washed it one time when I was about 12 ... A great hockey Goalie and a kind and generous cousin who leaves us with many fond memories . Goodbye Marnie, I ’m sorry we can’t be there today .Peter & Rosemary Nicholson

  7. My deepest sympathy to Alison and the extended family on the passing of Marjory. My memories are of a young woman who would keep her dear dad engaged when she would drop into the hardware store in Camperdown. I also remember going to school with the Nicholson family which was wonderful.

    Marjory may you Rest in Peace and may those whom you loved find peace and comfort at this sad time.

  9. Marnie wasn’t merely my Aunt; she was the artist who helped me paint my dreams in vibrant colours.
    I will miss our long chats on the phone and hearing your laughter. I am so grateful and blessed that you were my Aunt and my friend.
    I will hold you in my heart forever.
