We are very sorry to hear of Marlene’s passing. Being employed with the Fortress Louisbourg Association I have met and worked with her over the years. She was a very gentle and easy going soul. She would anxiously show me projects she was working on and we would have a few laughs. She was very proud and loved her grandchildren and family’ I will miss her. Do to prior commitments I will not be able to attend the funeral, Linda Mac Leod.
